I have a bitch who I just had a litter off of this past April. She will be 11 March 2014.

She is a house dog, and unfortunately we give her unnecessary "treats" lol But she has more than earned it and is a spoiled brat! So she is a bit chunky, but still very athletic and can hang with the pup we have off her all day long romping and playing about.

She did have 3 pups in her, the first one was stuck and was extremely HUGE, we had to make a trip to the vet @ 4am and he did not make it. The 2nd pup came out with ease and the last was a struggle. The 2 surviving pups were good size, but my pups usually are so nothing out of the ordinary.

I really want to breed her again, she's in heat now, but I'm a bit conflicted. And concerned she will have trouble again, she looked like hammered dog shit after her delivery last time, and I felt horrible. but she sure looks great now!
