More: Our dog Rudy is 9 months old and we were very lucky to become Rudy’s family when he was 8 weeks old ! Rudy is a Labrador Retriever who also happens to have dwarfism. However, he has never let that hold him back from doing anything...he runs and plays with us and other dogs in our extended family just as if he is regular sized dog. In our family we have 5 girls ages 6-14 and he is very patient with us when he allows us to dress him up! We love him very much
