Mom snapping at Puppys

[Athena50]

The rottweiler across the street from me just had a liter of 6 puppys, and the people over there asked me a question about the mom snapping at the puppys. She has never bit one yet, but is there reason to worry about here actually biting one?

how old are they? what was going on?

if they are not total new borns, she could be teaching them bite inhibition or keeping them in line - in terms of who is boss as well.
