Donating YT 1000 Club Member | I'm so sorry for you loss. I'm sure your Westie never meant to hurt the puppy. I know from experience as my mom bred dogs when I was young and I have bred my Yorkies. I know that another female will try to play with a puppy. I make sure my other dogs are not let near new puppies. They just want to play and mother them but really only the mom know how to be gentle instinctively. I actually had to take a puppy away from a female dog (Bull dog) when I was around 14 and the puppy had bite marks but was OK after a vet visit. The female wanted it for her own and the actual mother let her take it. Please don't be upset with your Westie it may have wanted to mother the puppy or just play.

| Unfortunately you have learned a very important lesson.. That you never, never let a dog have access to another dog's litter. I have heard of even jumping into an ex-pen and eating the babies. Whatever happened, it was instinct and although hard for us humans to understand, no sense punishing your Westie. |

| Thanks to all of you I have began to understand and accept what happened. Molly isn't confined anymore and we are giving her love and attention. Alexa is coming around and is a lot more playful. You are right, my wife and I learned a very painful lesson. In time we will try again and won't make the same mistake. Again, to all of you, thank you. Without your support this situation would have been a lot more difficult to bare. |
