Hi,

How rough do mom's usually play with the puppies? This is a first litter for both of us. She bites them on the back of the neck, and knocks them over. Sometimes they yip, but they jump back up and chase her when she lets them go.

Should I make her stop playing so rough or is she trying to teach them things? I would love to hear your experiences!

Thanks!

Whitney
