Anyway, my Yorkie (Suki), has been mated with a Toy Yorkie. All being well, and assuming she is pregnant, puppies will be due about 10th June - exciting times!
However, I want to do the best by her and have been reading on what to feed her. I currently give her Iams. Is this ok to continue? Possibly introducing chicken and rice as the weeks go on?
Suggestions please.
By way, this is also my first time breeding!!!

Since your are currently feeding IAMS, here is information from the IAMS website about feeding pregnant dogs:

Other than that, be sure that the mother gets proper veterinary care, especially as the pregnancy gets closer to term. Inform your vet that your dog is pregnant, and get all of the advice that you can. Also, try to contact other dog breeders in your local area for help and advice.
