Our dog (golden retriever) had puppies and she was the best mother ever. She knew how to tell the puppies no with out beingaggressive let your dog put the puppies in their place but don't let her be aggressive mother dogs have a deep growl that the puppies know which means to stop. let her get after them but tell her to be easy, she will more than likely know her limits with her owner. If she does get mean tell her that it's a no no, but other than that the mother should know how to do it all herself.

just the same as a human mother would breast feed her first born. her body produces suffcient supplies of milk thru mammory glands and then the babies nurse, causing the milk production to increase, and if they do not nurse often the "milk" supply will decrease eventually drying up.

No, only in extremely rare cases or behavioral disorders, wild animals might do it in extreme circumstances or when in captivity

Each puppy has its own umbilical cord, so they're nourishedby the mother's blood stream via the placenta. Species and numbers aside, it's just like for a human baby.
