Rose is the best dog with puppies! She has always been very good with them. Out at the breeder's, she will jump the fences just to get in with a litter. Then she will lay down and let them climb all over her, or even nurse(ok, try to nurse!). After a while, I didn't even bother putting her in a separate area from the puppies because she would always jump fences to get to them. My neighbor just got an 8 week old Westie puppy and she loved him! We were just outside checking the mail and he came running up to her and she just let him do anything to her! She's going to be a great mom! Shes usually nervous around strangers, but she let this girl pet her with no problems at all! She must know shes a dog person!
