That really is an amazing litter! I pray that they all stay healthy and strong! I would definitely keep mom on some sort of supplement. Wether it's cottage cheese, Esbilac... something along those lines. I'm not sure what you have available to you over there.

Holy Hannah!! What a huge litter I cannot wait to watch these babies grow..what fun!!

dray · 11-21-2007, 11:13 PM

Oh my goodness , that is like having 3 or 4 litters all in one!! I would be so worried!! Be sure to weigh them twice a day to make sure one did not get left out of a feeding. You have a big job a head of you getting all these kids grown up.

Best of luck to you !! And Congratulations!! That is some litter !!!

Thats going to be a lot of puppy poop!!!!

Wow thats impressive Congrats!!! I would surely weigh them more often to make sure they are all eating well enough. I also would start to suppliment them soon. Make sure you give mom plenty of cottage cheese, yogurt or something thats available near you to keep her from being depleted of calcium with that many babies it can happen very fast.

thanks everyone for your good wishes.The pups so far are doing well,all eating and gaining weight.Trixie is great too,she is starting to eat better for me now,I started her on a calcium supplement today so that should help,tried her with the cottage cheese but she only ate a little but she ate loads of chicken and beef and has started to eat the dog nuts too,I feed her royal canin puppy.I am going to start supplementing the puppies tomorrow even though they are feeding well,just to help Trixie out. I cannot believe that no one has come across a litter this size before,There are so many of you on this site from all over the world,i cant be the only one

Maybe!!??!?!!! I've seen a few litters of 7, and maybe on of 8, but your size 9 litter.....it's the first I've heard of! WOW! What is the weight range of the puppies? They look to be nice sized with being such a large litter.

mypreciouspups · 11-22-2007, 06:50 PM

Congradulations. I would definitely supplement mom's diet and supplement the babies. We had 5 puppies 3.5 weeks ago. The last time we had 5 puppies, mom quit at 2 weeks. This mom continues to nurse and looks much after 3.5 weeks of nursing. She gets turkey, 2 pet calcium tablets a day, and as much puppy mash as she wants. I give the puppies the same mash but made with puppy formula not water.

Keep us posted.

I've also heard of litters of 7, but never 9! You have truly been blessed!
