12 babies - Largest Yorkie Litter??? Okay, I started talking about this in another thread, but thought I'd ask everyone - has anyone heard of a larger litter? Our Dam Hillary started having her babies over night last night - she had 3 outside before we knew she was whelping, and they didn't survive, but she kept having more babies all day and now has 9 living and the 3 that passed, for a total of 12 puppies (2 males, 10 females by the way - 3 females are no longer with us). They are teeny tiny right now, and the smallest one is barely hanging on, but hanging on (I am trying so hard - but I had to take a break or the stress was going to kill me). Opinions? |
Someone here had a litter of 12...two passed. The dam weighed 20 pounds though. |
In all My time on here I know I havent heard of a litter of 12. I dont even think Ive heard of a litter of 9 but I could be wrong |
Sorry for your loses but WOW congrats on the others. And so many sweet little girls! |
How big is the mother? I have never heard of such a large litter! My German Shepherd was one of ten, and I thought that was big!! |
Oops, not a dozen...11...but way out of standard dam which probably explains so many puppies http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yt-...ge-litter.html I know a biewer breeder whose dog had 10 puppies this past January. |
WOW! I've never heard of that big of a litter... imagine the pee pads your going to need! Congratulations!! |

Wow! I've never heard of such a large litter of yorkies either! Congrats on your babies! I hope the rest of them all make it! |
WOW! That is so many! |
babies Wow, my Yorkie had 7 and I had to hand feed 2 every 11/2 hours with canned puppy milk until they were big enough to fight for food. I had had n ultrasound done and it showed 4....big surprise! |
That's a whole lot of puppies...how's momma doing? |

Congratulations and sorry for the 3 loses. Ive never herd of a Yorkie litter being that big but the more the merrier. :) Hope to see pictures. |
