A German shepherd can have six to eight puppies, which is about average. Litters of ten or more are not at all unusual.<\/p>\n

The world record for the largest litter of puppies belongs to a Neapolitan mastiff who had 24 puppies in November 2004.<\/p>\n

German shepherds are a popular breed of dog known for their loyalty, obedience, and trainability. They are also known for being great family pets.<\/p>\n

But how many puppies can a German shepherd<\/a> have?<\/p>\n

German shepherds can have litters of anywhere from one to twelve puppies, but six to eight puppies are about average.<\/p>\n

The size of the litter depends on a number of factors, including the age and health of the mother dog.<\/p>\n

Breeders typically wait until a German shepherd is at least two years old before breeding her, as this gives her time to fully mature physically and mentally.<\/p>\n

Healthier dogs tend to have larger litters than those that are not as healthy.<\/p>\n

So if you’re thinking about getting a German shepherd puppy, be prepared for the possibility that there may be more than just one!<\/p>\n
