Yes, the last 3 weeks and 3 times a week. I purchase mine through Revivalanimal.com It's Solid Gold Concept a Bitch. All my dogs are on Solid Gold Flaxseed Oil.
I usually begin changing as soon as I find out she is pregnant...but, I do a gradual change over. I do add boneless, skinless steamed chicken breasts to all my dog's meals...I do add, a bit of cottage cheese during the preagnancy but, not with every meal....and grated mild low fat cheedar cheese. I begin increasing meals to 4 times a day during the last couple of weeks and throughout her whelping time. Immediately after whelping I provide her with NutriDrops and a recipe of Canned Goats Milk, equal parts of water, 1 Tablespoon of Karo Syrup and 1 egg yolk, beat thorougly.
And then add during her nursing time Post Whelping Pudding
Post Whelping Pudding
16 oz. water
1 pkg. Knox Gelatin
(micro. to disolve)
15 oz. can evap. milk
2 tabls. vanilla yogurt
2 egg yolks
2 tabls. white corn syrup
mix all ingred. in bowl let set in fridge
until thickens. Spoon out as needed.
Even during the night when I am checking on puppies I gave Mom some of this.
I've used this recipe for weaning pups too...
Congratulations on your upcoming litter and my prayers are with you that all goes well.
