Yesterday one of Crow & Cinder's littermates delivered ... 10
females.


Those are some wacky long odds.

Insanity.


But a fun sort of insanity.


I tried to find information on multiple puppies all of the same sex. I
found quite a few for sale, but no real information. I wonder if it could
be from fertility drugs, such as what has caused human octuplets and other
anomalies. While searching I found this interesting website:

http://www.pitt.edu/~dash/manykids.html

Here is a story on the octuplets (seven of whom survived):

And here seems to be a video of a Dalmatian with 18 pups!

There was another link about a bitch on fertility drugs that gave birth to
180 pups, but you have to sign up for the site. It seems to be a joke, or
an email harvester.
