If one is to know the liter size then she's just about due. My post referred to the complete pregnancy.
I wonder how popular puppy food is for expecting moms in our breed. |
You're right Elle, no calcium supplement during gestation.
I should have clarified that Calcium supplement is after the whelp if a litter is 3 or more. Oral Cal Plus should be kept on hand. Only used if a bitch is laging during the whelp and of course if she is experiencing signs of calcium deficiency (eclampsia).
Per my repro vet & my vet in Dallas feel that puppy food is not necessary if you are feeding a good quality food with a good protien level. The one thing I do add in the last trimester is Rasberry Syrup and at times Concept a Btich. But both under vet recommendation.
Oral Cal Plus Is better tasting than the Calsorb.
