How old are the puppies? It is essential that mom eats at least 3 or 4 good meals a day. I feed mine around at 7 am, 5 pm, and 10 pm. She should always have dry food available. I feed my mommas a mixture of Chicken Soup and Canidae dry and I add some canned Pedigree Lamb and Rice puppy food. You can also add a little cottage cheese or a hard boiled egg yolk. Make sure you give her 1/2 calcium pill in the morning and 1/2 before bedtime. I would recommend that you order, if you have not already, a product called Cal-Sorb from Revival Animal Health. It could save your bitches life if she get eclampsia. A YT member just lost her bitch a couple of days ago to eclampsia and her bitch was nursing four puppies that were 3 weeks old. She was also giving calcium supplement. Please keep us posted on how she is doing. |
