Definitely a bunch of hooey... genetics determines size. Overfeeding results in a chubby puppy, not a larger overall puppy. Had I overfed Ruthie when bringing her home, she wouldn't have grown longer legs or a longer body - she would have just gotten fat!
When breeder's are saying this - they should be more concerned about the unhealthy aspect of overfeeding rather than how big/small the dog will be as a result... |
