How horrible! I'm glad the remaining 3 puppies are doing great though! and have found a new mom to nurse off of!
I know this is not the same... but Paris' litter this past Sept. This was her first litter and she was TOTALLY clueless with what to do. Wouldn't lay with the puppies, wouldn't clean them, or wouldn't willingly let them nurse. For about the first 3 days she was like this... I had to get up every 2hrs day and night and lay her down and make her lay down so they could nurse. Luckily she was never aggressive with them.. she just had no clue what she was doing. After about 3 days though something clicked in her brain and she became a GREAT mother.... and I never had to do anything with them after that!
Good luck with the babies! Hope they continue to do well!
