usually an Akita dog will have 5 to 7 puppies per litter.
Most Alaskan Malamutes have between 4 and 10 puppies in each litter. The average is 6 puppies.
There can be 5 - 7 puppies in a litter of a Saluki.

An Akita can have an average litter size of 7 to 8 puppies, but it can range from 3 to 12 puppies. Breeding practices and the individual health of the mother dog can also influence litter size.
on average 4-7
I have had 7 puppies as a maiden (first) litter. I have known one female to have 9 puppies for each of the 3 litters she had. average is between 4 and 6, however it can be as little as 1 or 2 or as big as 10 or 12. It all depends on the female every dog is different.
No it will take as much as 6 months
The normal size of a Cocker Spaniel litter is between 3 and 7 puppies, with 5 being the average litter size.
The average sized litter for greyhounds is between 5 and 7 pups, so 6 would be the general average.
The average litter size is 1 to 3. Note that pomeranians are small dogs and so can only hold a small number of puppies; there have many pomeranians litters with just one litter and 2 and 3 are very common. A pomeranians litter with 4 puppies is considered to be a large one, although litters of up to 5, 6 and even the rare 7 have been reported.
