Dog with Short Spine Finds Family Who Makes Sure He is Never Short of Love

Squishy was born with short spine syndrome, one of only a few dozen dogs in the world who have the condition. It means he has some physical challenges that other dogs don’t have, such as bending down or itching himself. But he doesn’t let that get in his way of being a dog.

When Squishy turned 4 years old, his original family could no longer care for him. Enter Joe and Sally. They offered to pet sit for Squishy and then he never left.

He’s now got parents and doggie siblings who adore him and gets scratches from his dad whenever he needs them. And although he has a short spine, his family makes sure he’s never short of love.
