Also if you induce for smaller size you are also effecting the internal organs as well so you are stunting growth and development which leads to health problems. I have heard of people lying about the age of a dog to trick buyers into thinking they are smaller but they are just younger so they have not grown as much.
This is what my post related to this morning

We are so used to being honest that it is sometimes difficult to see what goes on in the mind of one that is not. They are concerned about the sale and only that. If the pup turns out to be a good deal larger and with many health problems, it bothers them not, they are out for a quick sale and it's so easy for a new pet owner to fall for their story. Do they educate as to how too small can have gigantic problems associated with it through the pups life, of course not.

Yes as Maximo says, it does make sense and it makes me sick.
Hope this makes more sense. And I fully agree with the Sassy 2 and so many others here.
