They can have between one and eight puppies in one litter.
no
They don't give birth. A puppy is just there. You don't get to see anything. Sorry!
You are misinformed. Dogs give birth to litters, typically of half a dozen puppies.
Occasionally dogs may give birth to only one puppy but if there are more i would get your dog to a vet a soon as possible
How long ago did mum give birth?She could have some retained afterbirth or a retained puppy that is causing an infection. If you are worried see a vet as your dog could become very ill. She could just be tired after giving birth.
They are shi tzus. Shiatzu is a type of massage. Most small dogs have difficulty during labour, and it may be best for you to consult a veterinarian.
She could have a puppy stuck.You should get medical help straight away,she will become very tired and distressed.
if the pup is under 6 weeks it would be better to give it puppy formula and once it starts growing teeth around 8 weeks or older then you could start feeding it soft puppy food.
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.
They give Jess a puppy for Christmas.
Yes, you can. Vaccinations administered too early can interfere with the immunity that the mother transfers to the puppy immediately after birth. Always contact your veterinarian to set up a vaccination program for puppies.
No.
