Hi Matty just seen this thread. Mum might fight the babies or trample on them. Also she will have nothing to do with them. Ours are nearly 4 weeks and tommorow or friday we are taking them away from her.
Make sure they are weaned from mum which I know ours are.

I hope this helps

Sometimes mums are very tolerant and patient. The main reason to separate then must be the age of the pups. After 4 weeks the boys will need to be taken out as they may try and mate with mum or sisters. Secondly mum will be tired out and her body will need rest and peace away from the demands of the pups to regain her strength. You could leave the girls with her but she may start to nip at them so I would take them out as long as there are two who you can run on together for a few weeks
