how is an OTTER going to save you from a dementor?  One,

In Shamanism, Otter has some interesting attributes - especially when applied 
to Hermione: Woman's healing; sensibility without suspicion; guidance in 
unmasking talents; psychic awareness; faithfulness; recovery issues; and 
"understanding the value of playtime".  You might check this site
