Otis the lap dog. Always
needing to be as close as
possible.
A little bit about us...
Dana, Nicole and Otis, our family of three. Although
we got a dog we ended up with a best friend.
Before Otis came to live with us we did a ton of
research into the English Mastiff breed. We really
did not want to make a hasty decision. After lots of
time and talking to MANY people we finally decided
on getting a mastiff. Otis was one of the biggest
decisions in our lives and it was well worth it! He is
an amazing dog. He came to us at 20 lbs and we
had no idea how he would ever grow to be the 235
pounds he is now....well, we figured it out quickly!!!
Please enjoy looking at our pictures and reading
our tales. Otis really is a member of our family and
I think you will be able to see that.

Otis staying at the hotel before a big
show...pretending to be camera shy.
Not a chance for that one! I am very
tired after a long car ride from
Massachusetts to Pennsylvania.
Otis and Dana laying nose to nose....taking
a little nap!!!
Otis loves to sit right in front of us when we
are watching TV, notice the TV in the
background and Otis' large head right next
to it!
Christmas 2007-
Otis got all dressed up for Christmas. This
was our Christmas Card, he had a wish list
attached. He stood here like a solider
forever while we giggled and took pictures!
These are Dana's clothes which we had to
cut off of him after his photo shoot!
February 2009, Otis went to Westminster!!!!
