These are all of the good reasons why you should never feed puppy food to a pregnant bitch. Puppy food contains added calcium.
The wisest approach is to simply increase the bitches regular food. She will need you to feed her smaller, more frequent meals as she gets bigger. Avoid adding cod liver oil until about the 7th week.
