Well, that would NOT happen to me, since I take better care of my dogs than that.

I would keep a close eye on her, to make sure nothing gets under the shed at the puppies. I would try to get her to bring me the puppies. But there is very little you could do. Is it possible to move the shed?
I would also try and seal the shed other three sides if possible.
Good luck.

Don't worry about it. Lactating bitches have great maternal instincts and managed to survive in the wild for eons of time before being domesticated. She'll look after her puppies, and if she isn't happy where she was, she would pick them up and bring them into the house or some other site that she thought was better.
A little rain won't hurt the dog or the pups.

As long as the shed is a relatively dry place, she'll be fine. (If it's not dry, consider draping an old blanket or something over that portion of the shed.)
It's more traumatic to move a new mommy and puppies.

Nothing, the mother will know what to do. Dogs have been around a lot longer than you, they know how to take care of their young.

I'd have to see the scene. But, when she gets hungry she will move out and move the pups. Put some food out for her and coax her to another location.

She knows what she is doing, let her be alone for a while. She will come out when she is ready. Just watch over her.
