A dalmation named Milly gave birth to a rare, huge litter of 16 spotted pups in Shropshire six weeks ago.
The dalmation was coincidentally one of 16.
Owners Lisa said: "During the caesarian the vet pulled out eight puppies and gave a sigh, so we thought that was it - but there were still eight more to go. The vets were amazed."
"It's really unusual to have so many puppies in one litter and the Kennel Club actually doesn't believe us." She added.
The family are all hard at work taking care of the pups which will be sold on to new homes, and they have decided to keep one.


据英国《每日邮报》12日报道,一个多月前,英国什罗普郡的一只名叫米莉的斑点狗产下16只幼仔,这个数字实属罕见。

巧合的是,米莉的母亲也曾诞下16只小狗。

斑点狗的主人丽萨说:"兽医在给这只斑点狗接生时,先取出了它先生出8只小狗,接着叹了一口气,我们以为算已经生完了,但结果发现它又生下了8只幼仔。兽医们简直都难以相信。"

"一窝产下这么多的小狗确实很少见,事实上连养犬俱乐部都不相信。"她补充说。

一下要照顾这门多小狗,确实不容易。所以丽萨一家决定留下一只自己饲养,将其它15只送往别的家庭。
