2nd Answer:

Yes you can touch the pups after birth as you should be wiping them down with clean dry towels to clear any fluids from their mouths and cutting the cords with clean dry scissors and then dabbing the ends of the cords with iodine. Cut the cords about 1 1/2" up from the body of the pup, don't pull on them. Be sure to count the afterbirth as she should expel one after each pup. It would be best to take the pups and Mother dog into be checked by your Veterinarian to make sure all are doing well and that there are no pups still left inside of the Mom dog.

you CAN, but SHOULDNT. since theyre newborn, theyre prone to catching simple sicknesses and diseases that could easily kill them. new people outside of the household should have NO CONTACT with newborn puppies. However, when YOU are handling puppies, make sure your hands are clean and you dont take them too far from the mother because it will cause her to become uncomfortable and leave the other puppies. Also, dont keep a puppy from its mother for too long, they must to stay warm because they cannot regulate their own body temperature.

You can touch them but gloves have to be equipped on your hands

You pick them up very slowly because they are very fragile
