This works so great because you don't have to worry about the puppies getting tangled in the bedding. Before I started using this type of box I was always waking up to crying puppies that were tangled up in the bedding because the momma would dig in the bedding and cover them up. Sometimes I will put a small fleece blanket loose in the box. I have attached a picture of one of the whelping boxes. |
What a great idea!!! Yes, we have had some MIA pups too lost in blankets in the box!!! Have to remember this...
