Hi, I’m Otto!

Otto Made Me Say That is my Otto-biography! It’s the story of how I went from a scruffy street pup to finding love, kindness, and my forever home. Pretty amazing, right?

Now I want to help other dogs without a home sniff out their own happy place! Every three months, I’ll pick one awesome animal rescue or shelter to get profits from my book sales. So cool!

A great book for…

Ages 3–6: Kids love sound play, silly words, and audience participation. Good for bedtime or classroom read-alouds.

Ages 6–8: Early readers can start reading it themselves, enjoying the humor and understanding Otto’s clever comments.

My Big Mission

I’m one lucky pup. But there are thousands of dogs still waiting for their forever homes.

That’s why part of every book sale goes to local rescues and shelters who help dogs like me find families to love (and lick).

When you buy my book, you’re helping dogs find their happy place!

So…thank you. (I would lick your face if I could.)
