When Tessa went to have her ultrasound, the technician told her human parents that she was going to have 7 puppies but judging from her size, the vet told them to expect 10. When Tessa finally gave birth through an emergency cesarean section, she didn’t just give birth to 10 pups but FOURTEEN – seven boys and seven girls!!

The average Basset Hound litter is 8 pups. With so many mouths to feed and only so many nipples, Tessa certainly needed help so it’s a good thing that Michelle and Andy Robinson were ready, willing and able to help her with her pups. Can you imagine, 14 new addition to the Robinson family, I’m sure the Robinson household was never the same again!

Mommy Tessa must be thinking how great it is to have supportive parents. Seems like the puppies’ dad is still in shock up to this time since he hasn’t been of much help judging by the dazed and crazed look on his face, haha! Share this awesome and happy video with other dog lovers, I bet we will get mixed reactions! 😉
