Mother dogs play an important role in the growth of their puppies. Aside from being responsible for providing nourishment, they are also role models that the puppies can learn. However, dogs sometimes can be very complacent and wouldn’t care less if their offspring get into trouble or mischief.
One Korean family owns seven rowdy puppies that are all two months old. As expected, they’re hard to control and often make a lot of mess inside the house. The owners can’t seem to agree when it comes to the method of disciplining the puppies.
One of the owners points out that the puppies’ mother, Winter, doesn’t care for them. After they were weaned, Winter couldn’t care less if the puppies misbehaved. Sometimes she would also bully them for no reason.
The two owners are at odds about Winter’s behavior. The husband insists that Winter cares, and her aggression towards them is her way of disciplining them. The wife doesn’t agree with this explanation.
An animal expert was invited to share his opinion To enlighten the owners regarding Winter’s behavior. The expert surprised everyone when he said that there was nothing wrong with Winter’s behavior. He echoed the same sentiment that the husband had. The wife was in shock, realizing she’s been wrong the entire time.
According to the expert, when Winter bites the puppies’ necks, she is disciplining them. They aren’t getting hurt; rather, they are being reprimanded. The expert suggested allowing Winter to continue what she’s doing while the owners provide additional support.
The owners were asked to build a large pen in their backyard. Such a place will allow Winter to better teach her puppies proper socialization. Furthermore, the expert emphasized that the puppies need to go to different homes soon. They are old enough to get adopted, a decision that benefits not just them but also the owners.
