TJ wanted the dachshund mix to visit his father in the hospital, but animals are not allowed in hospitals for various reasons, including hygiene.

Thankfully, the TikToker was ultimately able to convince the hospital staff to let him bring Shorty along, and the entire visit was recorded on video!

In the end, Shorty lies in her owner's arms, panting contentedly.
