Valiant had not suffered first hand abuse but his dwarfism condition is the result of intensive breeding for getting the oh-so-trendy miniature fluffies. Breeders do not care anymore about dwarfism indicators on stallions or dams as longs as their offspring is smaller than regular fluffies.
His mother was rescued from a foal mill and gave birth to two regular fluffies and Valiant, much smaller because of his condition but not a runt so he was taken care and bottlefeeding was not necessary. His brothers have been adopted long ago but we keep Valiant at the shelter living symbol of what greed is doing to these lovely animals.
