Introducing puppies to male (father)?

[lovely bones]

How do I introduce the new father to his puppies? He is a little jack russel who is quite vicious? Am what do I do

 

[Borderline Collie]

You don't.

First off, why the HE|| did you breed a "vicious" dog to begin with? JRTs are enough of a mess as it is without idiots like YOU adding to the problem.

Second, dogs don't have happy little families like Disney portrays. The sire of the litter has nothing to do with the litter. And if you let him near you're going to have a bunch of dead dogs.

hold the father on a leash and then slowly carry the puppy towards him so they can smell each other. if they get along, Great! if not, just hold the puppy away until the father calms down and try again. If it never works. I dont think they should be in the same room ever

the father could be protective so u would want to not introduce

 

[Nekkid Truth!]

you dont.

he doesnt know those are his puppies. the pups dont know that is their father. Its just another dog to them. Male dogs have NOTHING to do with raising pups.


ADDED
He may easily KILL the puppies
or mom may fight with him to protect the pups
or his presence may stress mom and cause her to abandon or even kill the puppies.

Keep him away from the pups.

you're the one whos dog delivered puppies about 10 min ago and you dont know what to do in that regard?

I have a suggestion for ya...put them all in one room...let them all maul each other...and get a pet ROCK as your next household pet

Just because he's viscous toward you/others, doesn't mean that he will be toward his offspring. I don't understand why you prevented him from seeing the birth, and just being there. ALL tenured members of a pack, (father/brother/sister/all) support and defend "their" puppies, will even give up their food/water to/for them. IF it's mother is mistrusting of any pack member, she will take care of that problem for you...trust me on that one !!!

I'd let the Sire have access to the pups and mom, but just in case you've created a situation where there is going to be a problem, monitor him/them closely... for a while anyway.
