| Same here. A few hours after whelping and when the pups are full, I will bathe the bottom half w/ J&J baby shampoo and make sure she is warm and dry before putting her back with the pups. I just can't see where leaving the mess matted in the fur can be anything but a germ fest waiting to happen. |

| I'm sure glad that you posted that. It's what I've always done, Sunnie does not like being dirty & I can't leave her like that for very long.
