Quasimodo, a 3-year-old purebred German shepherd with short spine syndrome searches for a forever home.

Quasi the Great is one of only 13 known dogs in the world with short spine syndrome. He is unable to turn his head, but otherwise, his condition doesn’t affect his day-to-day activities.

Quasimodo, a 3-year-old German shepherd, has short spine syndrome. He was rescued by Secondhand Hounds on January 28, 2016, in Minnesota.

He gets around just fine and knows exactly how to snuggle to fit into a lap.
