Yes. Each puppy will have his own umbilical cord and his own placenta. When the pup is born the mother dog will use her teeth to severe the umbilical cord. She will usually then eat the placenta. It is important when a mother dog is giving birth to make sure that all of the placentas come out. If a placenta is left inside the mother dog it can make her sick or even kill her.

∙ 15y agoThere shouldn't be much more than a little scar by the time the pup is 6 months old. If there is a visible, soft "lump" on the belly where the umbilical cord was attached, the puppy may have an umbilical hernia. If it doesn't seem to be causing the pup pain or discomfort, and the pup is otherwise thriving and in good health, just ask your Vet to check the "lump" next time you're in for vaccines or a check-up. Umbilical hernias can often be repaired at the same time the pup is spayed or neutered.
