@TheEddieShow I suspect that our Rosie was a runt also and probably because she had hip dysplasia from the get-go (we found out when she was about 9 months old). The breeder offered to take her back but we had already bonded with her. And I don't think we could've handled a fully healthy Belgian Malinois so it's worked well so far. Surgery is like $10k to correct her problem (oof). All that to say I'm glad you're here, @NorcalGma2, you remind me we're all working together to support eachother.
