But Shorty has a special passion that's been a major part of his life since he was a teenager - championing the cause of pit bulls.
Shorty has owned pit bulls since he was 14 and credits them with "saving his life" for being such loyal companions through some of the roughest times in his life. Because of this, Shorty took on another huge endeavor, forming Shorty's Pit Bull Rescue, a second business ;which rescues, rehabilitates and places neglected and abused pit bulls in loving, nurturing homes.
Shorty's Rescue is not a shelter or a charity; its employees work tirelessly to help relieve the suffering of and prevent cruelty to pit bulls through education and activism. Shorty's Pit Bull Pet Stars have worked on several independent, student and short films as well as public-service commercials and various print ads. The group does volunteer work by visiting nursing homes, schools, functions and hospitals.
After injuring himself in a stunt, Shorty became interested in service animal training. He trained one of his own pit bulls to be a service animal, and he actively has been involved in the Americans with Disabilities Act ADA community ever since.
Currently, two of Shorty's dogs are registered service animals with one in training. Shorty is a workaholic by nature; therefore, he doesn't have much spare time for socializing. When in social settings, he often surrounds himself with people of all backgrounds in his home in Los Angeles and his second home in Mexico, where he also spends a lot of time promoting pit bull awareness.
Shorty has a special place in his heart for his employees Ashley, Sebastian and Ronald, who are all little people. Shorty loves cigars, wine and relaxing with friends and his five pit bulls. The program is so popular there is now a lengthy waiting list. Not wanting to turn pet owners away, Shorty is in the process of purchasing a van to convert into a mobile spay and neuter clinic.
The clinic is expected to go into operation in the summer of Road trip for hope Shorty has seen firsthand the effects COVID has had on his rescue with fundraising and community support. During this tough time, his nonprofit is committed to helping other rescues across the United States by bringing awareness to the amazing work they are doing and helping them raise funds.
This past December and March, Shorty traveled across the United States visiting over 20 rescue groups to livestream on social media telling the world what they do, showcasing their hard work to adopt animals and bring awareness to their donation needs.
She keeps busy managing the career of her Internet celebrity dog Preston from PrestonSpeaks. She has three Westies, who think they are mini-humans, and a cat, who rule the house.
