A super puppy was born at a dog farm in Sanya, Hainan province, on Sunday.

The cub measured 32 cm in length at birth, twice the norm, and could climb straight away, surprising many local experts and residents.

A newly born dog usually spans no longer than 15 cm.

The dog's mother had between 11 and 15 cubs in her previous three litters, but this time delivered just one big one.
