It is interesting how we all have different opinions. My vets had always recommended feeding puppy food. I have been giving my pregnant females puppy food for 13 years and have never had a problem with pre-eclampsia. I agree that a quality food is important but then vets and breeders have differing opinions on what is a quality food. I totally agree that any food with soy in it should not be fed. It has got where I hate giving advise because what works for me might no work for someone else. I know that is why it is advised for newbies to breeding to get a mentor and/or find a vet they can trust and follow their advise.
To the OP, best of luck with your upcoming litter.
