Puppy food….def. give her puppy food it helps produce the milk rather than the adult dog food…
Excellent quality puppy food and lots and lots of water.
She had trouble her first two litters, huh? Did you do anything different this time?
Good luck!
A good quality puppy food (no wheat, no corn, no soy, no by-products and at least two named meat sources in the first four ingredients). Also encourage liquids. You can spike a bowl of water with low sodium chicken broth or puppy milk replacer. There are also commercial products that you can order online like Happy Jack’s Milkade or other herbs you can buy at health food stores for breastfeeding Moms.
congrats on your new growing family
feed her quite alot of food and often maybe 3times a day, and feed her pup food and also mix in puppy milk that you can get, all animals will benefit from this mixture
Some vets will say puppy food, but if you are feeding a good diet than there is no need to change food. I would free feed her, which just means have food available to her at all times..
