I have a litter of puppies right now that are about 6 weeks old. They are at a point where their little teeth are coming in and momma doesn't want anything to do with them. I have another little girl, Kalli who has been too small for breeding and LOVES to play with them. Momma used to not like it, but these days she doesn't care anymore. Its funny to watch Kalli lay in the floor and let the puppies walk all over her and chew on her hair. I don't think its so much a mothering thing, but I think Kalli really enjoys the companionship of the young'uns!
