Shorty

Shorty is one of our dogs who survived the shelter fire. He is about 3 years old and a nice sized 40 pounds. <br/>His foster family says this about him: "Shorty is doing great! He’s been learning his boundaries and making wonderful progress, and he has officially mastered “sit” 🎉 He’s starting to understand that our yard is where he is supposed to stay He’s still a little curious about the world though and might try to slip out the door if given the chance. We’ve also discovered his biggest weakness… string cheese! It’s definitely his kryptonite and the perfect motivator for training. He can be a little shy at first, but he warms up quickly and once he does, he’s a total cuddle bug. He would love nothing more than to curl up on the couch with you and snuggle up next to you at night. He also has the softest fur, and if you’re lucky, he’ll give you a tiny kiss. Shorty has a great balance of playful energy and relaxed, easygoing vibes. He enjoys playtime, especially fetch and tug, and tennis balls are his absolute favorite! Shorty is a smart, sweet boy who is learning more every day, and we’re so proud of the progress he’s making! 🐾"<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a sweet, easygoing companion who loves to lounge, play a little, and give lots of affection, Shorty could be the perfect fit for you."<br/><br/>We do NOT ship our animals.
