yes animals can have dwarfism, A "dwarf" is a specific definition used to describe animals or plants with particular genetic characteristics and disorders. A dwarf is not just a small variety of an animal, although in some instances the word is used casually this way. A true dwarf animal, like a dwarf person, has genetic disorders of cartilage and/or bone development. Dwarves are not bred to produce miniatures.
