Hiccups are very common in all puppies and are actually quite normal. Puppies get hiccups when they eat and drink as they tend to ingest large quantities of air which then triggers hiccups. Common hiccuping is normal until dogs are about 8 months of age. There is also nothing that you can really do to stop hiccups in a puppy, other than having the puppy rest until the hiccups are gone.

What breed of dogs make up a pit pull?
If you use the correct categorization pit bull is a Staffordshire Terrier, an American Staffordshire Terrier, or an American Pit Bull Terrier. However, any dog with a bull-terrier type body is stated to be a pit bull, including any bull dog mixed with many of the terriers or molossers, or any mixed of those with most other breeds. For example, an American Bulldog/Great Dane mix would be generally considered to be a pit bull. If that dog was bred with a Labrador Retriever their litter pups would also be considered pit bulls.

What colour would puppies be if a black and white Irish marked staffordshire bull terrier mated with a red staffordshire bull terrier?
Well, it is more likely to be red, black or white but staffs can be any colour. My dog's mother was a brindle and her dad a sandy. The pups came out sandy brindle another brindle and my one that's black. So you can't really say. But I hoped I helped!
Why are black and tan pit bulls not encouraged?
Actually, (AKC registered) The American Staffordshire Terrier is not encouraged to be Black and Tan or liver (Rednose). Amstaffs occasionally do run tricolored or Black and tan. So does the Staffordshire Bull Terrier. English Bull Terriers run tricolored as well. This gene is probably from the Terrier side of Bull and Terrier breeds. The American Pit Bull Terriers are allowed to come Black and tan by the ADBA (American Dog Breeder's Association). It is also allowed by the United Kennel Club. Certain breeders or bloodlines might tend to through the color more than others. I've been told both parents have to have the gene to produce "tan pointed" pups. Most who are not acknowledgeable about the breed might think that some pure bred Black and tans are mutts! They are an important part of Bull and Terrier history.
What reason will a staffordshire bull terriers turn on their pups?
This is not a very likely scenario as almost all Dogs make excellent mothers. Dogs will usually only kill their offspring if they are very sickly. This is not a normal behaviour in Dogs and a mum that has killed her offspring should not be bred from again. Possible reasons for cannibalism or killing of puppies are a behavioural abnormality in the mother or the mother having a calcium or nutrient deficiency. If looked after properly, a mother should not kill her puppies.

What colour would puppies be if a red Staffordshire bull terrier mated with a brindle Staffordshire?
That would be difficult to predict with any accuracy, but most likely some puppies would be red, some would be brindle and others would be a mixture of the two. Just to tell you how unpredictable colour can be in pups: The breeder I bought my staffie from bred a red with a red... the result was, 3 red pups, one white pup, one white with brindle patches, one white with tan patches, one white with black patches and one black with white and tan paws

How many pups will a Staffordshire bull terrier have her first time?
The before answered question is actually fairly true. Staff's normally will birth 5-10 puppies. However, a first litter for any dog can have is complications. Mostly due to anxiety, stress, and environment, there could possibly be fewer puppies the first time, if not one that didn't make it. Now that's a hard fact. Even though motherhood is built in, there can be a learning curve for the momma. Just keep your dog comfortable and feeling safe. If she's comfy, the pups are too! Stress can lead to a number of birthing problems, but an inviting area she can call her own, even she the birth, will help drastically. So, be there, be aware. It's a wonderful experience that will give you joy for a lifetime! It's the 7 weeks after that we'll have you pulling your hair out!
