Depends on the breed/size of the mother dog. However, smaller breeds have been known to produce smaller litters compared to their medium and large breed counterparts, but can and sometimes do have what are considered to be "abnormally large" Litters for their "size".

My chihuahua just had one puppy?
This is called a singleton puppy. It is not unusual for a dog to give birth to one puppy, but it is uncommon. The average litter is about six puppies, but some dogs may have more or less.Singleton puppies lack the companionship of literates, so they often grow up confused about their position in the "pack", may be over-playful because of the lack of playmates it had as a puppy and may be a little snappy because it didn't have siblings to test its "strength" on (which is a perfectly normal thing for puppies to do).This behaviour is not the fault of the puppy. You can try to find a sibling for the singleton puppy by adopting a stray puppy.
Is it normal for a dog to bleed 5 days after having 7 puppies?
My first question is, what does the blood look like? If it is small quantities, dark brown and not foul-smelling, this is called lochia and is normal. If the blood is red, clotted, in moderate to large quantities (more than a quarter cup) or has a foul smell to it, you should take your dog to the veterinarian immediately.
