Well I am not a breeder per say but I have had 2 successfull whelps one with my poodle whom I had an audience with Makenna my oldest had some friends over to watch then they went to school and told all about it. Shadow allowed anyone to touch any hold the babies and once she wanted them back she would calmly walk up and take it from your hand then lay down and clean them.
The other is my pomeranian whom I left alone as I was getting my perm done and I only messed with the pups to check to see if they where boy or girl but she to let us touch and hold and let the other dogs around she even let my female poodle pretend to nurse them as my poodle didnt have pups at the same time and she really enjoyed being a mom.
They where both in the crates with blankets, food,water bottle and vitamins. and they were allowed to come and go as they felt it was neccasry(sp) |
