Dwarfism is only expressed when both genes in the persons genome (that determines the trait) are of the dwarf type. Both parents can carry one 'dwarf' gene and one 'normal' gene and express a phenotype of normal. Their children can be either pure normal, half normal, or pure dwarf, with only the pure dwarf expressing the phenotype of dwarf.
The chances of being half normal are 1/2, the chances of being pure (normal or dwarf) are both 1/4.

Are dwarf hamsters and Chinese hamsters the same?
A few years back I owned three Chinese Dwarf Hamsters, but there are different types of dwarf hamsters, e.g Russian Dwarf Hamsters. However, if you are thinking of getting dwarf hamsters, I don't recommend putting them in the same cage, as when I had my three, one of them ended up seriously injuring the other one.
