She probably recognizes there is something wrong with this one particular puppy. Possibly it is the runt of the litter and not doing as well as the others. Has she done this on a regular basis or just once? She may be wanting you to look closely at the puppy for some reason.

Have you taken mom and pups to the vet for their once over? Like Tick mentioned, there could be something wrong with this one pup. Usually when a puppy is sick, the mother dog will neglect it, as it may take more nutrients from the healthy pups and mom.
I would suggest you take them all in to the vet.
