You have to be very careful when using any kind of supplements...We just feed a high quality dog food...increasing the amount the last two weeks of gestation...You want your mom in good physical shape, not overweight, so she can deliver without problems...Obese moms have a higher incidence of inertia or distocia...So make sure she still gets her normal exercise!

If you overfeed your mom you run the risk of making fat babies ...fat babies are more difficult to deliver...
