personally i cant see there being a problem whether bottle fed or not all animals have the instinct to rear pups and be good mums no different from a human bottle feeding or breast feeding they are all still good mums

Bottle fed pups don't tend to be any different to normally raised pups in regards to rearing there own pups. They either make good moms or they don't
You can flip it the other way that a lot of bitches don't naturally make good mothers. You can never really be sure until the pups come along. You can just hope.
