Nice write up op. A good dog can be more faithful than your local security man and more reliable than your burglary alarm. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Yh godwinony: Dats why it is called a fact u didn't know.... |
Re: Facts About Dogs That You Probably Didn't Know About by godwinony(m): 12:01pm On Mar 16, 2017 |
calmeGOBE:It's termed a fact so you swallow it without thinking According to the writeup, dogs give birth per 2 months..that's 6 times in a year if they keep getting pregnant... How many puppies are born at a time...lemme go with an outrageous 15 pups...that's 15*6=90 puppies in a year and that's even stretching it... Does that sum look close to 11000 per year so as to amount to 66000 in 6 years? You were given a brain, make use of it. |
