small litter size
We have been in touch with a breeder for over a year and have been patiently awaiting our new puppy. we recently found out that the mum is pregnant! The breeder then told us that she appears to have a very small litter- she said the ultrasound only showed 2 or 3 pups. We have read that healthy puppies come from healthy litters, so we were wondering if this is something we should be concerned with? any advice is appreciated, Thanks LH |

My boy came from a little of 9 - yippee! But his mom and her sister, both excellent bitches, were the only two in their litter.  If you've done your research and know that the breeder is reputable I wouldn't worry about it! |
| Hi
A small number of puppies in a litter is not an issue at all. The number all depends on how many eggs are fertilized and implanted. Barbara |
If the breeder is a reputable breeder, I wouldn't worry about the small litter. My first OES came from a litter of about 10...that was 20 years ago! My new puppy was in a litter of five and while looking for him, I found many whose litters were small and only two or three pups...Not to worry. Sometimes its quality not quantity that counts  Good luck! |
