HERE'S OTTO

Otto is a 9 year old wooly malamute mix rescued from the shelter in San Mateo, CA. Otto is very non-aggressive. This video was taken at Seal Point Park. See tinyurl.com/kat83. Otto lost his pack mate Maggie on 2/8/08.

This is an edited version of my earlier comment:

Otto's boss sister Maggie is in the background at 0:24 seconds (on the YouTube frame time counter) taking a dump (retrieved off camera) and also later at 0:44 seconds in the upper left background walking away as a little dog provokes Otto into flight. at full speed and slow motion.

TIME WILL TELL and I now know how my obsession in getting Otto on film paid. I always felt if not now when? Otto still makes me laugh or smile as Otto was a one of a kind spectacular.

The biggest challenge I faced with Otto was telling all the people who on seeing Otto wanted to know what kind of dog Otto was and then telling them why on earth I felt compelled to put on YouTube over 150 videos of all his park visits. The visits were loads of fun and Otto always did more than one act worthy of recording for prosperity!

He sure is happy!Are you sure he's 9,because he's very energetic!

@Audioslave160 Looking back a year, I think Otto weighed about 50 ponds when we sprung him from the shelter. Weighing in at 50 pounds then, Otto was probably close to his “fighting weight”. That let Otto move around more. Plus Otto after 8 years of being a chained up backyard dog was finally free and had easily hypnotized new owners (us) that you are in my power-resistance is futile!

In that video he was about 8. Also Otto was just recently broken out of jail (the shelter) when the video was shot so Otto had a lot of irrational exuberance:-) Otto shows he will not put a paw on any dog unless Otto feels he has a willing partner for a little let me mount you.
