You will just need to keep the momma in a closed off area with her pups. You will need to let the momma out throughout the day so she can socialize with you and the others. The pups are at the age where they are not eating as often and the momma gets bored being by herself. I have my puppy room setup so the mom is in a big exercise pen setup with her whelping box, food water and pee pads. When I have a litter I let the momma out about 5 or 6 times a day so she can run around. It does keep you busy for sure.

Make sure you keep a close eye on the puppies toe nails. Once the tails started getting those sharp ends you need to use some baby nail clippers and cut off the points.
