She is ridiculous. A chi is going to grow like they should (tall or short) regardless of the food. If you limit food b/c you want a smaller chi, that's just gonna make him look thin and malnurished, but not make him shorter. If you overfeed, and the chi is naturally short, you will just have a fat dog, not a taller dog.... if all that makes any since... lol. ~Lacey
