However, a litter of 16 pups is considered exceptionally large for Border Collies. It's important to remember that:
* Large litters can be dangerous for the mother dog: This puts a strain on her body and increases the risk of complications.
* Not all pups in large litters are healthy: Smaller litters often result in healthier puppies with better chances of survival.
If you're looking for a Border Collie, remember that breeding for size is irresponsible and harmful to the breed. Look for reputable breeders who prioritize the health and well-being of their dogs.
