My girl, Jewel, had a surprise litter earlier this year ( I had no idea she was pg) Sadly, of the 3 pups only 1 survived. This has been her only litter at the age of 4 and I was very happy to see that she was a great mom. This was not my first time at having puppies, so I was worried about how it would go with just one, but it was fine, puppy thrived and he was easy to wean and potty train. The biggest problem was how attached we are to him, we could never give him up, lol
