she could be sore and it hurts her to feed them you might need to get her health checked by a vet to make sure there is infections she might have or if the pups are at the age to eat on their own it could be her way of weaning them off her milk this natural behavior in Dogs. or if they are eating out of the bowl and the female dog is growling at them it mostly her way of putting them in line like the way we would punish our kids when they are misbehaving if your worried about her behavior at feeding time and if they are eating from the bowl just feed the pups away from her some times the mother dog might need time to herself abit like us when we have noisy children .

Do mothers harm their new puppies?

* i would certainly hope not however I have seen dogs that get aggressive towards their pups/ dogs and have attempted to harm them ** Yes, if they are stressed, or if they haven't had good parenting themselves. Parenting, even among dogs, is learned behaviour. If a mother dog is harming the new puppies, she might easily cause their death. On the other hand, removing the puppies could cause the mother to reject them. It's very difficult to know whether to step in and take the puppies or remove the mother. Sometimes it's enough to put the mother in a separate area for a while, where she can see the puppies but not reach them physically. The best course of action when a mother dog is acting aggressively towards her puppies is to call a vet for advice on the particular situation.

Will getting female rabbits desexed stop them fighting?

Desexing will generally reduce aggression in any animal. While done for this reason more for male animals, even in females it results in a decrease in the hormones responsible for aggressive behaviour. Female animals, rabbits included, can become very aggressive when in heat, when the urge to mate can make even the most normally docile pet become quite anti-social towards their owner. Some other important reasons for desexing your female rabbits include helping prevent uterine infections, cancer and mammary tumors, and - of course - unwanted babies.

How dog will become friendly with the master?

This is a rare case; they are very loyal animals and are never aggressive towards their owners. If the dog is aggressive towards the master, it means the behavior of the master is annoying and want them to stop the act immediately. The aggressive behavior is shown while feeding them that is when you stop them from eating their food or if you do not supply the food properly. Aniitaaaaaa :)
