When you get to know this dog, your heart will start melting little by little…

When you first get to see Quasimodo, different questions start popping into your mind. I know that he is a really special dog, he has a really short spine, and he is one of only 13 known other dogs in the world who also suffer from the Short Spine Syndrome.
The thing is that no one knows nothing about Quasimodo’s past life.  The short-spined German Shepherd was found as a stray dog, and then brought to a southern shelter. 

He was brought to Secondhand Hounds in Minnesota, and even though he hasn’t been at the shelter for a very long time, the rescue group is already in love with this special creature. They say that he is really “sweet, friendly and loving.”

“The rare genetic condition causes a twisted spine, which may cause health problems with his internal organs later in life. The spinal condition can be a result of backyard breeding. Two other dogs with the same spinal condition, Pig and Cuda, who have found loving homes regardless of their special needs.”



Here is Quasimodo in the second day at the shelter getting an X-ray. The precious pup looks really relaxed about this whole thing. Apparently he is way to happy to be around loving people. 

Once the shelter thinks that this beautiful dog is in good health conditions, they will put him up for adoption. As for now Quasi is enjoying his beautiful days with his loving foster family. 
Here is a video of Quasimodo when he fist got rescued by the shelter. My heart melts when I watch videos like this one. This puppy is so happy, and he can’t help but showing everyone that he feels so lucky. I really wish Quasimodo all the best, and I truly hope he finds a loving, caring forever family.
