Good bye to the Best MisAdventurer

Otis this past halloween as darth vador!
Otis and blondie

This was Otis right after wilson was born.
Otis had to say his goodbye today. He was really sick on Wednesday night and I took him to the vet and they thought he had a bladder infection and then this morning he was getting worse. He ended up having a large mass in his stomach and internal bleeding. So he had to go on his last adventure with us. We are so sad to loose Otis. He was such a special and good dog. We are so sad that Wilson will not really get the chance to know Otis. But Otis and Wilson had become the best of friends. Otis did not care at all what Wilson did to him. Wilson could pull and tug on him and Otis just sat there. Otis was also trained as a pet therapy dog. He was just the best dog ever. We are truly going to miss a dog that was truly a one in a million dogs.
Otis had many misadventures such as eating a WHOLE jar of peanut butter (which we stilld o not know how in the world he opened), he tore open a whole box of Gevalia coffee, he ate a whole bag of mints at Frankie's house and later threw them up in my car, he went on all of our group/charity walks, he was a canine good citizen and a ceritfied pet therapy dog and he could catch a hot dog from a mile away. I love you Otis, and we will really miss you. Good bye buddy- you were truly the best dog a mom, dad and a baby boy could ever ask for. We love you and know that you are enjoying your new home. Until later. We love you.

Thinking about you, Heather. I know Otis was a part of your family, and we will miss reading about him in our daily emails.

Heather, that made me teary just to read. I am so, so sorry and will be thinking of you this week. Saying goodbye to a pet is never easy.

I'm so sorry to hear about Otis. It's tough saying goodbye to a faithful friend.
