Humans can release multiple eggs from one ovary, or from both. It could be possible that several were released from both horns and several days later it happened again. So eggs from both horns could have been fertilized by both sires. You really have to let us know when these pups are born. I think you will be able to tell the pure chis from the chi-shis pretty early on. Anybody taking wagers?

So the dog with either be from one sire or another. Once the sperm penetrate the outer layer of the egg, the egg creates a chemical layer that does not allow another sperm to penetrate. - em :-) _____ From: Chihuahuas@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jeannine Sent: Monday, July 16, 2007 2:46 PM To: Chihuahuas@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [Chihuahuas] Chihuahua puppy Heather, >From reading on the subject, the female puts out egg and if more than one dog fertilizes that egg they are a little of both, if the dog goes 24 hours between males then that eggs is put away and another comes out and a dog fertilizes that one. Even the AKC has said they will paper dogs that multiple male partners as long as they are not mixed but separate. Like you put sofy with Bonzo on Monday then with BooBoo on Wednesday. You'll have two different breeds and they will register them.
