Kourtney and Khloe decided to give Shorty a little TLC and brought him back to the Kardashian-Jenner household. There he showered, was given a haircut and shave, plus was given a bunch of their stepdad’s clothes to wear. They even arranged to have a dentist make Shorty a set of dentures.
Khloe memorably took Shorty under her wing Credit: E! Shorty was first introduced to KUWTK fans during the first season when Khloe took him under her wing after she found him sitting in the parking lot outside of the family’s DASH store.

After he moved from the location, he dropped his hoodie, which Khloe picked up and gave to him. Playing on her conscience, she went back to visit Shorty again, which is where their friendship developed.
The Kardashians later secured a rent-controlled apartment for Shorty, hoping to help him become more independent. ‘God does wonders,’ Shorty said, thankful that he’d ever met the family. Discussion: He was searching for a job and apartment, he added.
