X-ray said Five

Note: This entry should have been posted 2 weeks back. Unfortunately, i misplaced the x-ray copy of Jasmine given by the clinic. She indeed gave birth to five love puppies and she is now nursing them. Three male and 2 female pups.


We took Jasmine to the vet 2 weeks ago to have her x-ray so as to count the possible puppies she will deliver. We were then asked by her vet what month Jasmine started mating with other dogs. We can't be certain when but two dogs from our neighborhood were always outside our house waiting for her to come out during the mating season. One is a poodle (true) and the other is a crossbreed of shi-tzu and chihuahua (that is according to the old lady who owns both dogs). 

Jasmine was really not into the smell of other dogs in the clinic and she started to pull me outside. Other dogs barked when she made a funny sound which i thought was a sound created by a scared dog. But when the vet gave her comforting words and touches, she stopped making any unusual movements and sounds.

She was then taken to the x-ray room and her doctor called us after five minutes or so. The screen at the center of the huge black table showed Jasmine's bone structure with shapes of her puppies. Five of them! So search and count them. See if you can be a future vet or simply knows how to spot them.
