Moon says the dog, a gift from North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, gave birth to six puppies on November 9, three male and three female. As the dog was given as a gift only a few weeks ago, Moon says he believes the dog was likely pregnant at the time she was given as a gift.

President Moon Jae-in adds that he hopes the North-South relationship will be just as prosperous as the new family of dogs in the Blue House.
