It was the mom's first (and her owner's) litter and she is tiny. She had 4 pups with the lone the male dying during the birth. The owner had to call a the vet over as there was some difficulty...as was told to me. While I wish she could have stayed with her mom and litter mates until at least mid-January, I'm awfully glad to have her.
