I don't actually give cottage cheese until after whelping, but if the cottage cheese doesn't cause any digestive upsets (and won't in most dogs) I don't see any reason to discontinue giving a small amount. Use the low fat kind. Although cottage cheese does provide calcium, it's not near as much as what a supplement would.
Another dangerous supplement while pregnant is Vitamin A (liver has a very high content). Vitamin A overdose may be linked to cleft palates. |
