Good boy, Otis! Having a big adventure, and making it back home safely!

A great story, but I’m most impressed by the alert system for lost dogs.

Happy ending. Good drawing of the dobe. Well done.

A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself.…Josh Billings

I’m glad for both Otis and Steve. A friend of mine in Denton, Texas, lost his dog, a chug, a few years ago when a gate was left open. Sadly, it was never found.

An adventure story with a happy ending— great for the new year.

But maybe Steve should train Otis not to jump into holes.

You might have just had the worst day of your life, but the dog won’t care, it’s just happy to see you. What a wonderful story. Such good news. We have three dogs in our pack of animals. All of them very good.

Beautiful story! (And the story-telling and illustration blows me away!) – been a fan since I lived in Seattle in the 90’s
