True. I just never factored it to be a detriment to getting a puppy out of a sack or 'scissoring' the cord. Any time the subject of over or under bite came up I just thought about the bite, form to function and such. In the grand scheme of things I had teeth and jaw structure in the performance section not in the birthing process.

Like most, if I had not been there and most of the puppies did not make it would have been her fault, another case of bad mothering. By being there the puppies made it, and in turn, she is doing an excellent job with all nine. EWO
