Mother chihuahua killing all of her pups
I have 2 different litters of chihuahuas that were 7 pups each litter that the mothers killed all of the puppies and the 3rd litter she has 2/7 left.. That is so odd. I ha put Revolution on them before I knew they took. Could that have something to do with it? They delivere only a coupe of days apart. I can not think of anything else that it could be. Any ideas?

I had put Revolution on them before I knew they took. Could that have something to do with it? They delivered only a couple of days apart. I can not think of anything else that it could be. Any ideas? I did take the remainging 2 ups from the 3rd mother and I am bottle feeding them.

I dont know much about breeding but i would take the remaining puppies away from the mother's. I would hand raise the remaining puppies to not risk there health.
If we ban Pit Bulls and Rottweilers are humans some dont like next ?

spay the mother, spay/neuter the puppies when they are the appropriate age.

this is a temperament flaw that can and probably will be inherited in some of the offspring

Your momma dog is killing her puppies?

I raise Chihuahua's and have not had this problem. My Mama dogs are very protective of her puppies!!! One dam tried to eat a puppy that was born dead. I had a cat have kittens once and she tried to eat a deformed on that was born. So the only thing I can thing of is there maybe something wrong with the puppies. I would spay her, and if you still want to breed, find another female.

Is this one dog that is doing this repeatedly, or multiple dogs? Are the mother dogs related?

Just to be clear, you had 2 litters, and the dams of both killed all the puppies. Where does the third litter come from, do you have a third bitch? There are many reasons for this, but when you reply, I'll tell you what they are.

Um my friend breeds these dogs and his NEVER acted aggressive toward one another AND usually only have 1-2 puppies IF THAT! Hmmmmm...

As to your post...seperate them, and spay your female(s).

Must be huge chi's to have had 7 pups each.

People are like slinky's, not really good for much. But its still fun to push them down the stairs.

Actually the post reads that the Revolution was put on the mothers prior to her knowing that they were even pregnant.

Unlikely that had anything to do with the moms killing their own pups.

Maybe Revolution was responsible for 2 (or 3?) chi's having 7 pups/litter? ;-)

Hey, OP -- come back and clarify your story. It sounds a little fishy.
