My girl had a litter of pups yesterday and was wondering what folks thought about cedar chips for bedding in the whelping box . I've heard some pro's and cons but wanted to hear from some folks that may have used it .
regular ol hay works fine
My wife and my mother in law have been in the show dog buisness for about 20 years, The M-I-L tried it at the start and quit using said the chip were to rough on newborn puppies eyes plusthey can inhale dust get pieces in their mouths possibly choking them. I would just use an old blanket that can be washed.
Shredded paper works great.
