This bitch achieved a real record when she gave birth to an XXL litter. Fortunately, all these little people are doing wonderfully!
A Dalmatian named Nellie has just given birth to an astounding litter. Indeed, the dog has given birth to 18 babies, which is double the average litter of a Dalmatian . . Something to echo the famous Walt Disney film “101 Dalmatians” . As for her mistress, Louise Clément, if she expected her dog to give birth to a slew of puppies, with this little twenty she was still far from the mark.
A hereditary phenomenon?
In total, it took him 14 hours of work, so that all these beautiful little people point the tip of their muzzle. “I thought she had stopped after the fifteenth because it looked like she had gone to bed to sleep. But another puppy arrived, then two more”, Louise tells the Demotivator
. Nellie is therefore the happy mother of 10 males and 8 females. And to distinguish them, she has each hung a necklace of a different color. A litter that may seem exceptional and yet, Nelly herself came from a litter of 19 puppies. Who knows maybe there is a hereditary factor?
Very worried for the puppies during the first days because their health was fragile, Louise was finally reassured, they are fine. And then, they didn’t fall just anywhere. Louise Clément has been raising Dalmatians for thirty years and is already 27. This does not prevent her from considering keeping a few when they grow up and are offered for adoption.
