| new puppies Having problem with one pup. Went to vet to have tails and dew claws removed on 12-24. He did a puppy exam and said all was well. When I asked him why she was taking little one out he said he is small and mom is trying to protect him. I notice that when she takes him out it is usually by the head in her mouth. I tell her to put him back in box she will but after she put him down she acts like she is digging a hole then she starts licking him. He eats well just cant understand this. This is my first time as a breeder and I am scared to go through this again. Anyone have any suggestions. I don't want to lose another one lost little female 2 nd day. Maybe i should be in this breeding. Mom and Dad are AKC registered. All information would be appreciated. Thank you. |

| How much do the puppies weigh? Are they gaining weight daily? |

| Sometimes adding calcium will help with a restless momma. Have you made a mothers pudding? I also add 1/2 a tums to that at the beginning....Also, if she is attempting to move her, it may be that she does not feel secure in her whelping area. Is she is a quiet out of the way place where there is not much disruption and certainly no other dogs? If she continues to move the puppy from the heating pad, you are much more likely to lose that puppy so I would most certainly intervene at this point. Also, yes, please weight the puppies at least twice a day and make sure they are gaining... How big are your puppies? |
