Question
Do pitts eat their puppies this is her first heat-pregnancy someone said if left alone she may eat her litter

Answer
I've never heard that this particular breed is prone to eating their pups. Some nervous first time moms may accidentally eat one during labor. Just don't allow a lot of people to be in the room with her during whelping, and make sure she has a safe place to have her puppies. You want to make sure you're there during it to make sure this doesn't happen.
