Having Litters

With all the talk about that crazy woman who had 8 MORE kids...at one time...I can't help but think of her when I see this video...only with the puppies it's NORMAL and proper!

I remember when the septuplets were born in USA a while back and one specialist said this exact thing - humans weren't meant to have litters.

It is amazing, though, that all 8 babies are doing so well. I can't help but wonder how 'well' they will do growing up in such a large family with only one parent to care for them all. (I have 6 children, and my husband helps me a lot, but it is still a lot of work and I sometimes worry that they don't all get the individual attention they need.)

Maybe it's not for me to judge this woman, but I can't help it. I just don't understand having 6 kids without a father and then adding 8 more. I just don't get it.

sadly, these puppies will probably have a better life than those little babies.

I can't agree with all of you more!

Oh my gosh is that my video? How funny!!!

And yes, those puppies will have wonderful lives. The breeder is super responsible. I have one of her dogs. :)

That lady is a pathetic shame and it just burns my ass that such a thing can be allowed.

@castrocreations- I'm sorry I didn't credit you. It wasn't on purpose. I'll try to get that up soon.

Having breast fed two babies at once I can fully sympathise with that mumma dog. Those pups are too cute for words.

@Romney - you're a champion. Today most mom's wouldn't breast feed twins and their own doctors wouldn't even encourage it. VERY SAD! I wish you'd speak out more about your experience and show how it can be!
