I just wondered, I know that Maltese can have anywhere from 1 to 5 puppies, with 5 being rare and 2-3 being the norm. But has anyone ever heard of 6 puppies in one litter? My Maltese Mariah had 6 in one litter this afternoon and I was floored!!!! Has anyone else ever heard of this before? If you don't believe it, see it for yourself.
Isn't this unusual???

Thanks, She and the puppies are doing great! We go to the vet tomorrow for a check up and dew claw removal. They all seem happy and healthy. It really surprised me when six were born. Especially for her first litter! :roll:
