Should I be concerned about his masculinity??? Lord no. My males love puppies and I always put a male out with babies when they are being weaned, sometimes two big males. CH Cody will actually regurgitate his dinner for babies. I caught Justin once showing them how to hunt (moles in the stone fence.) He caught one, killed it and gave it to them (YUCK!) Now, I DO feel bad for the boys; the babies will try to nurse, and by the time the puppies have sharp teeth, there are quite a few pin-pricks on the adults.
