Also, I wanted to ask something else.
Is it generally safe to have other dogs (of my own) with the pregnant bitch? Her own mother is staying with us and I have read somewhere that generally I should not allow the pregnant bitch to be in contact with other dogs 3 weeks before and after the whelping, as it would cause colds that would lead to sickness/miscarriage.
Would having the grandmother yorkie near the litter be dangerous, or would she actually become nurturing towards them? |
