Three-year-old Winnie is doing well.
How many!? A sausage dog has given birth to what could be a world record litter of 11 puppies. Three-year-old Winnie gave birth to the brood at home near Leicester last month. It seems Dachshunds are known for their large litters as another dachshund, Cheesecake, gave birth to 10 puppies in September 2021 and made headline news. However, little Winnie has now beaten that number and her owner Rayma Jones, 23, thinks it may be a world record.
A scan at 35 days of the nine-week pregnancy showed six puppies in Winnie’s belly which is at the higher scale of the average dachshund litter. Rayma knew it was time for Winnie to give birth when she started digging and stamping about on her bed on September 5 – five days before her pups were due. Rayma set an alarm to check her pet in the middle of the night when she went to bed but then heard a squeaking noise coming from the spare room at 11:30pm.
