  How awful.  We had something similiar happen when I was a kid.  We use to raise pekes.  We had 2 within just a few days of each other have litters and one was always very mean when she had babies.  We knew not to go near her or even try to pet the puppies unless she was out of the box.  
 She snapped at a pup I don't remember if it was one of hers or from the other litter and put it's eye out.  Of course we didn't go through having to have one put to sleep because of it.
 
 I just can't imagine what they are going through.  I wish them all the best in this difficult time.
