I'd like to take the opportunity to ask a question, Alexa has milk left on her. Any advice on how to go about that. I don't want her to get sick. dbrea

First accept my condolences on the loss of your singleton puppy. It must have been a terrible sight to find. Give mama Alexa some extra love; she will be fine given time and love, and don't be to hard on Molly. Maybe in the future it would be best to confine mom and/or especially the pups from the other family pets unless supervised by you.
On the milk note...When my female had pups in October she had two nipples that were not getting used due to them being the far top ones and to small to latch onto. Our vet said to use a cold/cool compress on them a few times a day and that would stop the milk supply to them. You might want to try that and/or they might dry up on their own with not being used.
