Shorty rules the art of zoomies and never turns down a chance to show off his moves, especially if there’s a wide open space nearby. He’s a one-year-old bully breed mix (maybe with a dash of dachshund or basset) and probably the fastest little blockhead you’ll meet on Cactus Rd. Shorty’s landed back in rescue after his adopter couldn’t support his needs around younger kids—he’s got a knack for knocking them over, as warned. He must be the only animal in the home—no cats or dogs—because sharing isn’t really his jam. He thrives in a kennel or his own room if kids are over and navigates a dog door like it’s second nature. Staff at Heidi’s Village all agree: he’s a favorite, affectionate, never destructive, and soaks up time with every adult (“soft spot for men,” but friendly with all). He needs a home with lots of space and people ready to keep him busy. Right now, boarding just isn’t enough for his spirit and energy. Ready to give Shorty the stage for all his zoomies?
