as long as the puppies claws are short enough, she should be fine feeding them until weaning time with minimal discomfortn (at which point maybe some sudocream could be rubbed on her- but only once the pups are completely finished as its not really made for consumption!).
congrats on the babies and hope momma n all keep doing great!
Thanks for the response. Can you share "when" I should attempt to cut the puppy's nails. They don't seem to be too long at this point, but they aren't nursing on me. lol
Thanks again everyone!
