The vet told me that dogs are not like humans, they don't need vitamins while they are pregnant because it will interfere with the natural way of labor. I haven't given any supplements to Ellie except when she wouldn't eat. Then I gave her just a tiny tiny bit of nutri-cal. We are still waiting for her to go into labor, she's due any minute now.
