Hello, it's your dog's ribs talking! The first sets of us that connect directly to your dog's sternum are known as "true ribs" while the ones that are not directly connected to the sternum are called "false ribs."While you have 12 pairs of us, for a total of 24 ribs, your dog has 13 pairs of us, for a total of 26 ribs.
