Some mommas do get very excited when the pups get out of their x-pen area. It is common for the mom to protect and shelter them when they first start venturing out. They are getting to the age where mom will try to play with them some. I have had a few moms get a little too rough with the playing but I have never had a pup get hurt from it. I prefer the mommas that play gently and let the pups climb all over them. I think the mommas that play too rough can be pretty intimidating to the pups. |
