Congratulations! I see that that puppy worked it's way out... I was wondering about you this morning...

You can try to pick her up and take her outside. The puppies will be fine for a few minutes, as long as they are safe from any other pets or small children who don't know how to handle them properly. Sometimes, their maternal instincts are *very* strong, and they need a litte encouragement to take care of themselves too.

It won't hurt the puppies for you to pick them up and give them a fresh blanket. You really should keep them as clean and dry as possible. Just put them on something warm and soft while you clean their area, and then put them back when you are done.

Best of luck to you, and congrats again!

Your dog will feel comfortable and then get up and ask to go out. If she has a sweet nature and is very good to her pups you should have nothing to worry about. She shouldn't have a problem with you putting a clean blanket in the box it will make her feel better. If she sees you touch the puppies and tell her what a good girl she is all should be well. I have done that even with cats and then they totally trusted me with their babies. I hope this helps it comes from personal experience. Good Luck

She won't want to leave the pups but you should make her go outside for a few minutes to pee and poop at least every six hours. Just loop a leash over her neck, pull steadily and talk sweetly to her. You might have to take a pup with you to get her started the first time - just make sure it stays warm in a towel.

You can pick up the pups - it won't hurt them. Definitely change the bedding at least twice a day. They need to be clean and dry!

proceed to call the rspca on a daily basis until eventually something is completed, have your neighbours do a similar. notwithstanding that's harsh, supply up feeding and watering the animal, you're in basic terms assisting those human beings in proving that thier canines is being cared for. If after 3 days the canines has lengthy gone without water, in basic terms THEN will you've a criminal leg to face on in case you remove the canines from the premises, verify this accepted with the rspca, ask them how lengthy a canines should be left on my own formerly that's considered deserted and also you ought to legally take it to them.. Be agency with them and tell them you'll the police about it. Take pictures and get as a lot data as you are able to that proves you in basic terms took the canines because it became definately deserted and ought to have died in the different case. do no longer take the canines with no existence or lack of life reason or you'd be in problem. Or, you ought to take the peacefull mind-set and ask the owner in case you are able to homestead the canines until eventually they're waiting to take it decrease back.

Sometimes new mothers are reluctant to leave their babies, but she needs to go out. Put her on leash if necessary and take her out.

There is no reason why you can't touch the puppies, unless the mother objects (I've never had one of my girls object, after all I helped deliver them). If it does upset her, then clean the box while she is outside. And females who cannot tolerate their pups being gently handled by their owner should not be bred, IMO.

Make her go. (Gently) pick her up, if you have to, and put her outside. Once she's out there, she'll go.

You really do need to change the bedding. While your b*tch is outside, put the puppies on a towel-covered heating pad set to Medium (pick them up with a small towel if you don't want to touch them -- although I'm not sure why this is a problem) and put new bedding down. Put the puppies back and let Mom in. Both problems solved. :)

she can probably hold it for a little more time...she just wants to stay and make sure the pups are okay and protect them.

i didn't know you weren't allowed to touch the pups b/c i've seen people so it before but i you aren't doing it...mabe the mother will move the pups somewhere else if the box is yucky.
give her some time.

You may need to carry her out take her out on lead, she just doesn't want to leave her babies.

If you don't touch the pups how can you change the papers in the whelping box? Mine are touched (gently of course) almost from the moment they pop out!

Lay a new blanket for her and put the pups on it. She'll automatically go to them. Remove the old one right away though cause she'll go back to it and take the pups with her. She'll go pee when she's ready but she won't take very long and she'll go right back to the pups. When she finds out it's safe to go pee and leave the pups she'll be more willing to go. And I'll have to agree, if you cannot find good homes for these pups, please have her fixed. Other than that, have fun with them.

I think she is protective over her puppies. IF she has to go she will. Leave the babies alone and get that dog spayed. There is enough dogs and cats in cages that no one wants. Love Maria
