My Katie got a little like that after she had her puppies and her milk came in. The puppies were not using all the teats and we had to express some from them. It sounds like she is just engorged from trying to wean them? I would try warm compresses and express a little milk and see if that helps her. Then see if she will let the pups suckle a little. She is probably sore and that may be why she is not letting them. Are the pups eating food well now? I would also check her temp. If it is up she may be getting an infection that would require some antibiotics. Let us know how she is doing, the poor baby definitely looks sore!
