Hi friends!
It's me, Shorty.

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY!

People often ask me why I look like this.

I understand I’m a bit of a unique looking guy, so let’s kick things off with answers to some burning questions.

Are you a Corgi?

Are you a Corgi?

No! I have short legs but I am not a Corgi. Corgis are pretty cute though ... and I think the Queen has one?

Are you a Basset Hound?

Are you a Basset Hound?

Nope! My legs turn out a bit just like a Basset Hound's do ... and I also have resting sad face ... but I am not a Basset Hound!

Are you a Dachshund?

Are you a Dachshund?

I am not! The shelter took a wild guess that I was half Dachshund and put that in my paperwork, but they were wrong!

Are you a puppy?

Are you a puppy?

I'm flattered you might think so, but no, I am fully grown! I'm just small and cute without any of the corresponding puppy shenanigans.

HOW DO I KNOW THIS?

I scienced real hard and took a DNA test.

I wasn’t a huge fan of the cheek swab but at least I didn’t have to get anything else swabbed, if you catch my drift.

Behold, the recipe for a Shorty.

Just as you suspected, I am clearly a Pekingese / Cocker Spaniel mix!

FINALLY, IF YOU FEEL LIKE IT

Follow me on Instagram!

I know what you’re thinking … am I really going to follow a dog on Insta?  Well, you don’t have to compare yourself to me (I am a dog), I promise I won’t eat your pizza (unless it’s Dead Crab Delight), and all I want is for you to laugh, smile, and feel perfectly proportional. The choice is yours, my friend!
