there are a few different types of dwarfism in the dog. The pituitary is one type and for this type there is a test for now.
this dig doesn't look like a pituitary type of dwarf for me. But maybe this dog did get some supplements of the missing hormoons?? For the GSD this test was validated a little while ago so was this dog tested?
For me this dog has a fairly normal coat (on the picture) , it almost has the shape of a dashund as if his long bones didn't grow enough, but on the other had it has a kined of a foxy head, so it can be a pituirary dwarf but it also could have an other cause.
