Years ago, i rescued a pitbull whi along with her litter had been found in a dumpater at a gueastimated 6 weeks. I took her at 8 weeks to my vwt, she was full of worms and extremwlwy emaciated. After having her for 2 weeks, I noticed her limbs were angling weird. Took her bak to the vet who gasped...she had her full set of adult teeth, with her canines just.coming in....her limb deformity was rickets. Vet assumed she was kept in a basement or shed and had no sun exposure. So while I thought I had a malnourished 10 week old PB pup, I actually had one exyremwly malnoutiahed pit who was.closer.to 6 months and only 12lbs...so severe malnoutrition really.can.stunt growth.exponontially. She was always a T-cup pitty..full grown, only.25lbs..with.a HUGe head...she looked like.a caricuture but was one of the beat.dogs I ever ownes.
