Therefore, I always think of the good litters tiny (not runt)- the littlest one who isn't as big as the others, but after a little helping hand at the start, has and will grow healthy and happy as the rest!
My kandi (corgiX) was a runt- she would have been dead By 6 weeks if the 'breeder' hadn't given her to us early (5 1/2)... She cared That little about them 
I am terrible at wording things; so with that in mind, does the above make sense? |

"Craic" "Yeooo" "Shem" "Get her bucked" "Yer ma" "Pure beaut" "Ragin'" "Norn Iron" "Whataboutche?"
LOL
Runt just means the tiny of the litter, here.
But I got ya now, breeder couldn't be asked to be top notch.
Breeder was 'taking the piss' with their health.
