otis

Meet Otis! Otis comes from our Colorado City Litter! He was whelped here at Canine Partners of the Rockies and is a pure Labrador Retriever born on July 21st, 2023, along with his siblings, Granby, Parker and Kiowa! He comes from our very own Arie!

Otis is named after Otis, Co. Otis, Co was established in 1882 as a campsite for construction workers who were building the Burlington & Missouri River rail line from Lincoln, NE to Denver. The community was named after pioneer settler, W. O. Otis. The post office opened in 1886 and the town was officially platted in 1887. Fast forward to present day, Otis has a population of 521.

If you are interested in raising a dog like Otis or would like to help puppy sit, consider becoming one of our much needed volunteer puppy raisers or puppy sitters by visiting our volunteer page. We raise, train, and place all of our dogs right here in Colorado so you will be able to follow your dog’s entire training and placement while making a huge impact on someone’s life.

Thank you to Terry platz for naming otis!
