A Puppy Lovers Dream

We all remember "Octomom" Nadya Suleman. Well her feat of delivering 8 healthy babies pales in comparison to what a Rhodesian Ridgeback accomplished recently.

Ten weeks after giving birth to 17 puppies, the Rhodesian Ridgeback mother is to be spayed while her cute offspring leave for new homes, the dog's owner said Thursday.

Ramona Wegemann said the 26-hour labor was very tiresome for the mother, Etana, and she does not want to endanger the dog's health with another pregnancy.
