Laura, I know of 3 bitches who were "obsessive" groomers when it came to
their whelps. This was a problem because all 3 bitches ended up chewing the
umbilical cords down too far. This resulted in umbilical hernias in all the
pups. In one litter, according to the vet, this caused the death of 2 pups.
In another litter, the umbilical hernia had to be surgically reduced in one
pup.

Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Obsessive groomers ?
A question for the List.? I have a girl who I will be breeding soon, I
hope.? She is 3 yrs old and?has had previous false pregnancies.? She also
has an obsession.? She grooms everything in sight.? She grooms her Mom, her
Uncle, my daughter's Yorkie, her plush toys, you name it.? She's not rough,
she just won't stop grooming.?
So the question is this.? Have any of you had a compulsive groomer and how
did they do with their puppies?? I hope she doesn't groom her puppies to
death.? Her Mom is the type who does her job with the pups, then she's done
with them.?
I would appreciate any thoughts on this.
