Mark said that he and his family "hadn't prepared" for the 16 arrival pups. "It's been a nice surprise. I was feeding them in groups of eight for eight days straight and going to work in between," Mark added. /VCG Photo

There are so many pooches Mark and Laura have had to take some of the strain off Rottweiler Roxy and join in by feeding some with special milk. As a result, the puppies have been sold for between 650 and 750 pounds (826-953 U.S. dollars) each. /VCG Photo
