the dad also lives with us and we are keeping two of the puppies. two people came to look at them today and afterwards she was looking around making sure they were all alright. she's very laid back with people should we let her meet the new owners again and be there when they take them so she understands they've gone or should we take her for a walk when they go, or sneak them out?

as it comes nearer the time for the puppies to go away, take them all away from their mother for certain times of the day. the buyers should also come over and spend time with the puppy, this way it isn't a total shock for the little guy. eventually the bitch will get used to the idea of puppies not being around, and she will get over it.

the least dramatic you can be about this situation will be most helpful. do not let the animal see any emotion in the humans, it rubs off on the dogs.

if they have been properly weaned and mom is already spending time away from them she will be fine. she's a dog not a person. She is not going to freak with her pups being gone.

After an hour or so she won't care.
