If so.... he would have your scent on him and thats a NO NO for mama... and would be the reason that she feels the need to bath him all of the time. It just a thought. Plus mama's dont like their pups messed with. They are always bathing them after they've been weighed or handled in any way. |
I never had that problem with my girls litters either, some of the babies are touched by Me even before mama gets her first lick of them, my girls have my scent all over them too, so i never had a problem i handle those babies from the first moment they arrive and my girls don't care, we are super close, I had a puppy I used to carry in my bra all day, and left him with mama on a heating pad when i went out, he was the runt and the vet told me that he was going to die, you have to see that dog today... he is my little fat one..LOL
Vickery, make sure he is warm and fed, and allow mama to help you when she needs to..you have my email you can email me when you need to.
best of luck..
hugs,
