Which way is correct?
The dog is short. But, he's obedient.
The dog is short, but he's obedient.
The dog is short, but he's obedient.

The main problem is that length and obedience are not generally mutually exclusive, so even the better sentence sounds odd. Nevertheless, both of these can be correct; it depends more on the style of the context: The dog is short. But he' s obedient.
