I know what all she needs in her whelping area we have her whelping area in a big walk in closet. One side is where pee pads are one area has her food and water and the rest is where they lay. I have done everything by the book ever since she got pregnant and i let her out this one time so that she could come out but still be near the puppies and that is when she wanted to bring them out with her. She is good now feeding and leaving them in there as she is confine with them in her area. |
I am glad she is doing better for you. I made the mistake of letting my girl out one time and had to force her to spend time with them after that. i use an x-pen and that way the mama feels like she is part of the family bgecause she can see us and hear us.
