When can you touch a newborn baby?
You can but you should be careful, the mother will be very protective until they are six weeks old. If you touch puppies before then the mother may not feed them and then the puppies will die. And if you want them to stay alive please don't touch them and then you don't have to worry about the puppies dying. You can handle newborns if the mother isn't feeding them it doesn't mean they will die you can bottle feed them
