Parvo

What should you do? Have you considered stopping your breeding program until you get your mortality rate under control? 13 upcoming litters??? What... to watch them die?
Sorry to be harsh, but from your other posts you seem to have a serious health problem in your kennel, perhaps parvo, perhaps something else. In any case, until you get that situation under control you will continue to lose puppies.
Do you have a local vet where you live?

yeah thanks for the remaining
i have stopped my breedng program 8 month i have vaccinated my all dogs and my 13 letters will be starting next month of course we have local vets but she is from america but what she says i don't know . my area is really cold i hope that parvo is gone now but , don't know what should i do, should i move my kennel ???? i am hoping last letter i have recieved full so what my knowledge is i do have parvo but is there have any other unknown death problems?????

I would still be worried even after 8 months. Parvo is some very nasty stuff once in an environment.
If you plan on starting to breed again. I WOULD NOT plan on so many litters. Take it one litter at a time. You may need to move. If you start to lose pups again, it is still in your environment.
There's not many other things that can cause such a high rate of death. Vaccinating the adults, from what I understand will only protect the adults.

this is my kennel area i have bleached and cleaned many timesand all my dogs are vaccinated. this is my last chance to breed GSdog if death problems comes again i will stop breeding GSdog and i will move or i will take my offsprings to onother location. i heard cold weather is kills parvo is that true????

have you confirmed that the problem was or is parvo in the first place ??
two other things come to mind, Ghiardia, and "Show Crud" (is a common name) for an over production of bacteria in the intestine, causing vomiting diahrhea and often death within 12 hours of the FIRST symptoms.
Hope your able to get this situation under control. That is just sad !!

Have you checked for Cocciddia? http://www.marvistavet.com/html/body_coccidia.html
Once your facility has been contaminated with this illness, it can be very difficult, if not impossible to get rid of.
There are products you can use in both the water and in the food you give to the puppies that can help prevent Cocciddia. Corid in the water or Cocci-Guard in the food. Correct diagnosis of the illness is a must before adding supplements such as these.

Send a dead puppy to a lab and let them make a test. Your wet will know where to send it to. Think it is Parvo, but you have to be sure. Give your puppies vaccination 4-5 weeks old, perhaps it can help.If not move the kennel.
You will never get a litter, before you know what is wrong in your kennel.
