German Shepherd Stays Small And Adorable Size As He Ages

One dog’s owner was surprised by the pup’s slow growth. When they adopted the dog though, it had parasites and so they figured that was stunting his growth. But even after the parasites cleared, the dog still seemed to be struggling with growing. Even as the dog aged, he stayed small and seemed to keep his fluffy fur that is normally characteristic of a puppy and not an older dog.

They had specialists look at him. Ultimately, the vet said they believed the dog was a dwarf. But they were worried about what that might mean for the puppy as that can cause health problems.

Watch the video to learn more about this special dog.

The dog’s owners always loved and appreciated him no matter what.
