We also have a Westie (1yr) she was very interested on the pup and stayed with me the first night. She appeared to be very gentle with her and mom never had a problem with the westie approaching the pup. Last Saturday I went out to my sister's and when came back home found the pup almost dead. Had some wounds and there was some blood on the floor. She was very cold. I rushed her to the vet but she couldn't save her. This is my first birth. Could someone bring some light into this? My Alexa is searching the entire house looking for her pup and it breaks my heart. I try to play with her and she forgets for a while. I love Molly (westie), she is very very gentle and loving but I'm so angry at her. She was confined to a create. But I see her eyes and don't understand how such a wonderful dog could have done that.

Please I really need to bring some closure to this. I have my first born coming soon and I am really worried.

I love my two dogs with all my heart. They have been my daughters and I love them as such.

I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your little one.... I know how your heart must feel.
I don't think your little Westie had any ill intentions... it's a natural curiousity and she probably just didn't realize what this tiny baby even was...
Don't be angry with her....
Dogs are very resilient and Alexa will do fine. Just comfort each other... and take care of yourself and that little one coming! <<hugs>>
