A bull mastiff from Texas gave birth to 17 puppies today. 12 girls and 5 boys. The human family was expecting 8 puppies, but they just kept on coming! The clip I saw on TV showed the proud mama trying to feed the puppies who were falling over each other to get to the dairy bar, LOL. I'm typing on a tablet, so I can't post a photo, but maybe another poster will be kind enough to do so.

Yes, they appear to all be healthy and rambunctious. The mama will certainly have her paws full trying to keep that family in line!

There's so MANY OF THEM! It's literally just a sea of puppies crowded around their mama. I think the mam might need help, though. I don't she has enough places on her belly to feed them all.

just an odd fact but an appropriate one for this thread.............each pup has it's own ""spot"" (don't think it will let me use the right word) that it goes to every time......no others but that one specific spot......which I find amazing...................................raven

That is an amazing factoid, raven. I was wondering how they would all get their turn at dinnertime.
