My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

"My name is SHORTY, and I'm sure you can guess why. I may be a tiny guy, but I've got a big heart that's full of love. I love to be held, so I'd be a great friend and companion for people who love to snuggle. When you hold me close, you'll feel nothing but comfort. I'm about seven years old, and I came to the El Cajon Animal Shelter with my friend and kennel-mate when our owner decided he didn't have time to properly care for us. I have hope that somebody out there will see what a wonderful little guy I am, then give me the time and attention that I deserve. I recently had a dental cleaning at the vet. I had a few teeth pulled, so now my tongue tends to stick out. Everybody says it makes me look even cuter, but I'm just happy to have fresh breath and clean teeth. I've already been house trained, I get along great with other dogs, and I like kids. If you're searching for a sweet and small fellow, then I'm your boy! I hope to see you soon so we can visit out in the play yard here at the shelter. Love, Shorty"
