Pregnant German shepherd feeding

[workinprocess]

Hiya I’m a bit confused as to how much puppy food I need to be feeding my bitch daily she has 4 cans of puppy food and 3 scoops of dry adult daily

@workinprocess About 30 days away from whelping I give my bitch(s) an additional lunch meal. The size is as much as they get as a dinner. So essentially they get 2 meals a day until the pups are weaned at aprox 6 weeks old. I also give 2 index fingers of Nutri-cal for puppies every day. The added vitamins help her prepare to nurse and help while nursing. I belong to a few GSD FB pages and have seen many people on there use the Nutri-cal up to 1 year on the pups. It supposedly helps with ear posting.

@workinprocess I understand. Let me check with my UK breeders and see what they use there.

@workinprocess You don’t want to put too much weight on her before the last three weeks.
