Well, it's far from normal, if you look at the growth charts, it about as far from normal as you can get. I'm a little surprised your vet just said, "It looks like she's going to be small." I'm not really up on illnesses, I'm not a breeder, but I have read that Liver Shunt can stunt dog's growth. Have you had a bile acid test done? Hope it's just genetic, but I would be looking for some more answers, if they are diagnosed early enough, and proper treatment begins, they can lead a relatively normal life.
