During the whelping, make sure that the bed is dry. Don't let the pups chill. Read the whelping book and follow procedure. I always keep my pups where they can be watched. It's very important that they are dry, clean, quiet, and warm.
Mom tends to get upset if there are other dogs or a lot of activity is going on.
All are quiet and feeding. Mom is being attentive. Cut declaws before they are one week old. Begin puppy shots at 6 weeks. Tack eyes if they are not open and staying open by 3 to 4 weeks.
