Agree with Nonnie here.

Its a too big a risk taking her out at this early stage with such young pups at home. She could transfer anything from her pads to the pups when going back to them.

Regarding the pup, Yes maybe the pup did sniff around her back end, smell milkand try and sniff her teats or knock her scar. But don't forget Maisies hormones are going to be all over the place at the moment as such a short length of time since having her pups and especially going through the ordeal of a caeser so she is likely to be a bit tempermental to strange dogs.

Hope the pup is ok. Just access when she wants to your own secure garden should be ample while she has such young babies in the nest.

The pups are gorgeous by the way
