8 months ago +1Looked it up. Stress, being bred too young, painful nursing, the puppies are sick, mom doesn't recognize her pups as hers with natural or caesarian.
It's not done a lot but it's not totally abnormal. Stop blaming the mother dog until you've researched it. Stop villainizing the mother dog. Yell and scream at owners who over breed and pass on bad traits because they know nothing about breeding healthy puppies, refuse to spay or neuter, have puppies for stupid kids who couldn't care less, breed for money. And don't give me that adopt don't shop crap. ALL dogs and cats need homes. Shelter animals can be just as sick or just as healthy, a breeder or Shelter can lie to you as tell you the truth to make that sale.
I had a German Shepherd puppy I adopted from a shelter in 1978. Cheyenne was 3 months old. Shelter didn't tell me he had incurable heart worm and the vet said it was too late! Cheyenne died a month later!
2002 I got a a Chihuahua at a now out of business pet shop. Yes she was a puppy mill girl. No one would look or touch her but my girl stared at me while they were bringing her out. She was from Tulsa Oklahoma. She knew I was the one. Crooked front legs, crappy appetite, slipped disk that can't be repaired, she had kennel cough.
I had to buy extra crap to take her home! Kennel cough cured in a week, still have to fuss at her to eat, her back went out 3 times and needed bed rest, now she has very weak back legs and falls a lot, she has a benign tumor cyst that keeps growing on her lip that removing doesn't stop, she makes accidents if I'm late taking her out or she needs new litter, she has an age wart, her snout whiskers all fell out but two because of age. But my Chi has a big personality, big bark, strong thumping heart.
My Montana girl is 16 years old, protected me from robbers, pulled me out of the way of cars behind me she knew I can't hear, got me up to get water after I collapsed from heat stroke. My girl saved my life several times.
A puppy mill girl you'd ignore! This dog is partly chewed up. But this dog will be the best thing that ever happened to the new owner, it'll be love at first sight just like it was with my girl.

I have an 18 year old cat from a backyard breeder I got from a newspaper classified. Manny is very healthy, looks like my previous Bluepoint Siamese and tried to kill my girl as a puppy so jealous he was. Now they're close. All need homes and love! 9 months ago +1This happens quite frequently with mother dogs in puppy mills. The dogs get stressed out when they have litter after litter with no recovery time. Basically, they have a litter and as soon as the pups are weened they are impregnated again and have another litter and this goes on indefinitely.
They basically go a little crazy. My friend just rescued two puppies maimed by their mothers. A little maltese missing a hind leg and a little cavalier spaniel with both hind feet chewed off. My friend has developed a friendship with a puppy mill owner just so he will contact her whenever he has dogs about to be culled for any number of reasons. I adopted a little Yorkshire Terrier mix who was born blind. He is the most amazing little dog and if she hadn't stepped in he would have been killed (usually bludgeoned with some blunt force instrument).
