I would take your dog to a vet, b/c it was probably an issue with the mother, not the pups, was this her fist time? Often the pups die the first time. Get her fixed and you won't have to worry about it. There is a current overpopulation of dogs, so the responsible thing to do is to get her fixed. There are lowcost ways of doing this, contact me for more info. If u decide to let her try it agian, take her to the vet as soon as u notice she is pregnant. The vet will be able to help make sure the pups are healthy. She needs a no stress environment and good food, but other than that she should be able to take care of the pups once they arrive. If the first pup gets stuck sometimes u have to gently help it out of the canal, or it and the others can die. Please get her spayed, Thanks!

It's unlikely that the next ones would die again. Call a vet and ask him. When our other cat had kittens she deliberately killed them all. That was due to the fact that she had mated with her brother. There's a reason why newborn pets die. Make sure you have good homes for the puppies. The pet population is high already. The mother will take care of them when they decide to pop out. Just check once in awhile to make sure she isn't laying on them.

Spay your dog so you don't murder more puppies. The reason they died is you didn't take proper care of them. Everybody thinks instinct is enough but they don't stop to think that these animals have been domesticated for thousands of years. You have to take action to save their lives. Just do the right thing and make sure your poor dog isn't forced to go through this again.

Just take her to the vet for a checkup. The puppies may have been born with an illness your dog carries. Check with the vet.

build a little house for your dog where she can labor.make sure the house has enough ventilation but make sure water can't enter when it rains.if not, put clothes in an area where your dog sleeps to make her puppies warm.
