Can puppies survive outside in 29-degree weather with their mom?

Question

Hi, it is the middle of the night, my great pyrenees is wanting to move her 3 week old puppies from inside the house to her dog house outside. It's 29 degrees. She is taking one at a time, feeding it for about 30 minutes, then going to get another. 4/10 are now outside with her. I was rescuing them when she walked away to get another but I just put them all back out with her. Should I force her in? When I locked her in she just kept one in her mouth, walking around with it everywhere. Pet's info: Dog | Great Pyrenees | Female | unspayed | 100 lbs

No i don't see any reason preventing her from moving the puppies outside, she will probably not stop trying until you let her anyway and it is not too cold or too hot, it's actually ideal weather so no reason to worry.
