I hear ya! I am constantly worried about Missy too. I won't let other dogs near her. I won't let anyone hold her. She is well socialized and around people all day, I just don't trust anyone else to hold her. She's too small and fragile. I learned that the hard way when she broke her leg from jumping off my hand 4" off of the ground. I know vets aren't always right, and every dog is different...but my vet told me last week not to expect her to grow much more other than to "fill out". So maybe there is a chance that Jersey will get thicker over the next few months. I guess just like people, they are all built so different. It's really hard to say...
