I was told to feed my momma dog puppy food while she was expecting well its been two weeks now, do i change her diet now or stay the same while she is feeding the pups.She had 5 min pins yeay!!!!
Hi Melly,
Congratulations on your new pups. I breed small dogs too . While the mom is nursing her pups, I usually give her canned food in addition to her dry dog food because she likes it very much and eats very well. That way she has more milk for the puppies. I also give her strips of chicken meat for treats.
feed her some canned or Bil-Jac frozen food

If mama is nursing, let her eat anything she wants including an egg a day, cooked chicken, puppy food and kibble and lots of water. If she isn't nursing, then she should be eating her regular diet.
