Teresa Patterson, from Yorkshire in the UK (owner of both Joey the terrier and Zara the Rottweiler) was surprised when she found out that her two dogs had mated and said she had no clue it had even happened until 11 puppies were born!!
“I was completely shocked,” Patterson said. “I didn’t think nature would let this happen but at some point it did. The puppies have a lovely temperament like their parents. . One of the puppies, Sparkie, which our son is having, follows me everywhere I go. But this won’t happen again – Joey will be going to the vets soon.”
After the litter arrived in the summer four-year-old mother Zara lost interest, leaving Joey, one, to take care of them. Sadly, four of the puppies died and Ms Patterson was forced to step in when Zara refused to feed.
She fed the seven remaining animals Weetabix and scrambled egg to keep them strong, and even gave them Horlicks to help them sleep. The puppies are adorable...
