Is it possible for pregnant female dogs to grow extra nipples? General Dog Discussions
I have a pit bull (Colby & Crenshaw breed) and recently she had her first litter at the age of 1 1/2. The strange thing is, within a few weeks of her pregnancy, she began to grow an extra nipple on one of the already swelling nipples on the middle of her stomach. At first I thought it was a flea bite, but within 2 days, it got bigger and darker until it was the same size, shape, and color of her other nipples. She had 14 puppies, which all survived, and all 11 of her nipples are producing milk.I have researched this, and cannot find anything similar to my situation. I know that bitches' nipples aren't as pronounced until they get pregnant, but you can still see them, and they do not grow off of each other! Is this a miracle of life-- Dogs growing extra breasts to accommodate the size of their litter? I am worried that the city's water supply may have caused this deformation. I cannot think of why this would happen, but I am very worried. Is this natural, or heard of anywhere?I did NOT breed my dog- she broke her collar and got knocked up by an unrelated pit mixed mutt. She is, in fact, my 3-year-old niece's dog and having been raised around an infant she is very docile and gentle around children. She is not inbred, nor are the puppies. So, you trolling little fucks, how about being helpful for once.My dog, Zoey, has milk in all 10 of her original tits as well as in her newest one. All 11 of them are producing milk- it is not a pimple. Also, her pups are over a month old with no health problems, and we've found great homes with family and close friends for all but two. Rest assured Zoey is getting spayed.
