Separate the mom and the babies for numerous hours (maybe 3 starting out) then put them back together. Later on (2 weeks) start separating them for 8 hours. About 2 weeks later take them away from their mommy overnight and see how they do If they whine alot, put them back together and start from the 8 hour mark. Once they stop whining, they are weened.

Will my 5 year old German shepherd adjust with a new pup?
In general German Shepherds are a one owner type of dog. However, if your German Shepherd gets along well with other dogs and appears docile then put your German Shepherd on a leash and let the new pup have the freedom, but be sure to keep the pup away from your dog. Watch the reactions from your German Shepherd. You could try this with a friends dog coming into your home to see how your dog reacts before purchasing another dog. "Never' pay all of your attention to the pup no matter how cute they are. Always go to your German Shepherd first. It's a pecking order. German Shepherd or any other breeds, there are individual personalities amongst dogs and some can be very patient with a pup, while others can be jealous and some even aggressive and harm the pup.
