Congratulations, she looks like a great mom and the babies are beautiful

I am glad that mom and babies are doing well. Digging after the pups are born is very common. The momma is probably just trying to fluff up the bed so she can cover her pups or get comfortable herself. I always keep a small fleece blanket in the whelping so the momma can use that to cover her pups.

Another problem she just moved her puppies on to my bed now,why would she do that ?

It is common for some mommas to try to move their pups around. If the momma is used to sleeping on the bed then she wants her puppies there with her. You really need to confine the momma in a exercise pen or a small area so she cannot move the puppies. Once the pups get a little older then she won't try to move them.

It is very common for a new Mommy to try to move her puppies. Confine her to an excercise pen & she will do just fine..

I noticed your Rainbow Bridge Babies & you have lost a few more than I have. As of 2 weeks ago I lost my 4th. baby in 5yrs. She was a Chihuahua not a Yorkie. I have left now an adopted Yorkie & a adopted Shih-Tzu.

It could be both. Be sure she is feeding enough. If she is the runt she may always be smaller than the others. Please check with your Vet..

Awww... how exciting. I am sure you were anxious to meet all the little ones. Congrats!

Yorkiemom1 · 03-02-2013, 11:04 PM

Trying to find out how the little puppy is doing....I had posted some help and it was on another thread that I can not find now....how is the smallest baby doing? As far as moving puppies all over the place, I keep my mommas isolated with their own babies, in crates that they have been acclimated to....no moving all over the room or house....you are going to loose a baby possibly, allowing her to do that....

gracielove · 03-03-2013, 07:20 AM

If she is moving the puppies then she is not feeling they are safe. Try to locate her in a mostly dark, quiet place where she will not be disturbed. She needs to feel safe. It is instinct for her to try to hide her puppies if she feels they are threatened.

Mitch1 · 03-03-2013, 08:12 AM

She does sleep with me,I don't have any spare rooms to put her in not even a cupboard so it looks like I will have to get her a cage today as I would like to sleep in my bed tonight haha,thank you every body x

It would be nice if you could get an exercise pen because when the pups get older and start running around they will need more room. The way I do it is that I have the pups in a whelping box that is setup inside a x-pen until they are about 3 1/2 weeks old then I remove the whelping box. I put a board across one end of the x-pen so the momma can get away from the pups. I also start putting down a small bowl of ground up dry puppy food and a small bowl of water at that time.
