I have kept them together to nap too. I lay down in front of the bed/box and keep my hand petting the mom. That really seems to calm her down. I am just terrified that she might do something because of her behavior to rid of the puppy. I take mom out for about 15-25 minutes about every 2-3 hours. Is that too much. I am trying so hard. I just want to keep mom and baby safe. The vet told me my #1 priority was food and warmth. I have been focusing on those = ) |
