Dixie_Girl Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 What is the avrg. amount of pups in a litter? The bitch is a small dog. Don't know if that matters. I am 10th on a list and was just wondering what my chances are...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dal & Mad's Mom Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 I think your odds get better or worse depending on what you want. I saw a litter in the fall that was 6 males all black and white. So if there are people on the list that only want a female or a certain color it ups your odds. The other litter I looked at same place was a litter of 5 4 females and male. They all had at least 1 blue eye and 2 were smooth coats. Poking around on the internet yesterday I also came across a litter that was as big as 13. Dal is one of 10 an even 5 and 5 all colors some smooth coat. Penny is from a litter of only 4 2 and 2 all red and whites all looked the same. So I think it's a crap shoot Crossing my fingers for you.

Kat's Dogs Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 For a BC I think it is around 6-7 pups. There were 7 in Dazzle's litter, but in another litter I was looking at......1 pup was born (nothing was wrong, it was just a small litter). So, you probobly won't get a pup this go around. Then again, I have heard of a BC litter of 14! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howdyjabo Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 My old line popped em out by the bakers dozen-- but everyone seemed very surprised that I got that many. shame cause I would much rather have had 5 And my new bitch(who whelped Sat ) is trying hard to catch up . I bred her just one time to a dog that had no chance of cleaning his pipes beforehand And I STILL got 8 pups Guess if you don't want a big litter thats when you're gonna get it. Since they have at least 10 buyers lined up I lay odds she'll have 4 . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL yeah thats exactly what I was thinking! Thanks all for your input. I want a female cuz DH is partial to them. And I already have my boy! But, this match is one I don't want to pass up! So, I don't care what sex, color, coat, etc. I just want one of them! So, maybe that will help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
