*Lolapalooza* Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Not a serious topic just wondering what others delude themselves into thinking when anxiously waiting to meet the new babies :D I have heard 1 inch of belly girth = 1 puppy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Lolapalooza* Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 My theory is shot but someone in our breed who's bitch put on 20cm girth but had 3 puppies ;) What about small breeds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebanne Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 I didn't measure Fern but she put on approx 7 - 8 kilos and had 10 pups in total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piper Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Jazz put on 8 - 9kg and had 9 puppies, I never measured her girth though, never really thought of it and went with vet clinics theory of what they saw on ultrasound plus or minus 1 or 2. LOL. And they were right, he said 8 or 9. We got to 8, thought that was all, laid down for a snooze as she was settled with them and woke up to her pushing for number 9.
