How long do you wait to bath mom after having puppies. We wiped her down with wet wash clothes...but she seems miserable. She is trying to clean herself constantly.
If I bath her and dry her with a hair dryer I can do that in about 15 minutes. Is that too long to be away from baby?

Go ahead and give her a nice bath. Make sure she doesn't get too cold though. She will feel so much better when she's clean, and even 1/2 wont hurt her or the pups to be apart. Just cover the babies with a soft blankie while she's getting her beauty treatment.
