Congrats to you, LG, now also a grandma to your beloved doggy daughter's babies.

So you now can say you have 11 grandpuppies!  

Gentle hugs & cuddles to Mama Angel.

Congratulations. It's amazing how many pups a GSD has sometimes. Our breeder has had 15 even.

Is this her first litter? And is she going to be spade,after this?

My yellow lab born almost 11 years ago was part of a little of 12 puppies.  Six boys and six girls.  And yes she has been fixed.

I am hoping for a pic...when you have time because I am sure you are really busy with all of those babies.

About 40 years ago, I decided to breed my show quality Irish Setter & thought she'd be a good mommy.  Wrong!  She had 17 puppies, 2 were stillborn & 1 died the next day of aspiration pneumonia (vet did autopsy).  The poor thing was in labor for 20 hours & I had to take her to the emergency vet for eclampsia.  I was left with 14 puppies & she had 7 nipples & really didn't want much of anything to do with a bunch of puppies crawling all over her.  I had to order her to lay down to nurse them in shifts & I kept them divided in 2 boxes of 7 each & would put 7 on her to nurse & then, I'd take them off & put the other 7 on & supplemental bottle feed & "potty" the 1st batch with a washcloth soaked in warm water to stimulate them go.  I took 2 weeks off work to do this, as it was a 24 hour a day job caring for them. For 3 months, I went no where but to work & back & took care of the pups.   After the puppies went off to their new owners, the 1st thing I did was get her spayed!  I was exhausted & said "never again!"!  I was so envious of my dog show friends who had 6-8 pups & mom-dog was a good mother & it was pleasant experience for them!
