i know what you mean,, i have a male that looks like that all the time..this one, i saw the mating and see movement.the picture is not as telling as it could be but i am sure!
she gave birth sometime between 10pm and 3pm today..1 male at 31/2" and 1 female at 4"..rather surprising..my last pup came from a 16" female and it was 3" at birth (and lost her yesterday) and this female is 10 maybe 11" and she has much larger pups than her larger counterpart!
female
Gorgeous Pups. How old is the mother, nice to know she is mature and giving birth at that size.
Gives me hope of a mature female earlier than I had hoped.
