Wow...I didn't realize the fighting was so intense for the pup to die
inside her.

Well, for one it was pack mentality...one starts trouble and everyonejoins
in.....the instigator was Ginger. Ginger is an alpha female and hasnever liked
Dinah to begin with. But Ginger is also very maternalistic andbecomes
aggressive when there are pups around or pups due...she thinks allthe pups
should be hers and she will protect them even from their ownmomma....I think
she sensed Dinah with pups...scented hormonal changes,ect...and her maternal
insticts kicked in. But bottom line, I am at fault.I should have already
spearated Dinah from everyone else. I had even justtold my mom the day before
that I needed to get the x-pen set up and getDinah in it...so bottom line, it
is my fault....Marsha> I am sadden to hear that Dinah lost her pup. Why would
