"Is This Normal? 6-Month-Old Puppy Takes Over Motherly Duties!""Macy's First Day as a 'Nanny'

Описание: You have to see this to believe it! Our 6.5-month-old puppy, Macy, just proved that the "big sister" instinct is very real. While momma Lola was busy nursing her three newest puppies, Macy didn’t just watch—she hopped right into the whelping pen to help!

What you’re seeing is a fascinating natural behavior called Alloparenting (or "aunting" behavior). This is common in pack animals where non-parent members help raise, groom, and protect the young to ensure the pack’s survival.

In this video, you'll see:

Teamwork: Lola stays calm and relaxed while Macy assists with grooming duties.

The "Piddling" Instinct: Macy instinctively knows how to stimulate the puppies to go to the bathroom and keep them clean.

Family Bonds: Why we decided to keep Macy as a permanent member of our family—she’s already a natural!

Dogs are pack animals by nature, and this behavior shows the incredible social intelligence and empathy they have for their own family members. It’s a heartwarming look at a "nanny dog" in training!
