I am NOT judging you, just because i retire my girls at age 5 I know others don't, I just want to make sure you know that you are putting this girls life in a higher risk than the younger bitches, and she will need EXTRA CARE, specially if she has more than one puppy to support she will need LOts of extra help, YOU will not have a life until this litter is basically wean, as long as she is lactating she needs LOts and LotS of calcium and GOOD fOOD, also buy liver , boil it and give her the broth and pieces of the liver mix with her puppy kibble and whelping pudding..
best of luck to both of you..
