 Good mommy or Bad?
Doo Doo's litter is now 13 days old. They haven't open their eyes yet. I mentioned before on another thread that she started taking her pups out of the whelping box. Someone told me she must not be happy where they are at, so I took the whelping box out of the bathroom and but her wire crate in there, that's where she normally sleeps. Well everything was well for a few nights, the pups all seems happy to be in the crate with mom. The crate is always open for her to come in and out as she pleases, only at night time she goes out for her last walk then to sleep and I close the crate. Last night I put her in her crate with the pups and went to bed. She started crying and scratching at the crate, I let her do it for about an hour hoping she would just go to sleep, but I gave in and let her out. She never sleeps out of her crate and last night was the first time. I have a baby gate at the bathroom door, because like I mentioned before she was taking her pups out of the whelping box. Well last night she jumped the gate (as always) then I heard one of the pups crying really close to me, so I got up to check, she took her pup out of the crate and jumped the baby gate with him and put him in bed with my daughter and there they were just laying in bed. I put the pup back in the crate and Doo Doo slept the rest of the night under my bed. This morning I took the baby gate off, as I don't want her jumping it with the pups in her mouth. So she got another pups and put him back in my daughters bed. I'm sorry this so long, please anyone ever have this happened? Any advice or some light on what she's doing. Oh and hubby already told me this morning, if she's not going to sleep with her pups, then they need to go back into their whelping box and she needs to go back into her crate at night. I don't know what to do.HelpLOL |
