Paisley's Mommy · 12-20-2007, 08:55 AM

This is Paisley's second litter and this time she only had one little boy (6oz) Tuesday night. He's in great condition and loving having 100% of the attention on him already! Paisley had him in her whelping box (a tent...the same one she had the first litter in), but prior to having him, she was digging and nesting under the bed. Last night she began doing the very same thing again last night and just leaving the puppy alone for a few minutes. She did not do this in the last litter. She's being a great mother otherwise, barely leaving his side and letting him nurse as long as he wants. Is this normal?
