New Mummy

Do I need to feed my new mummy anything in supplement to her diet whilst she feeds her 3 pups. She gave birth 2 days ago and the puppies seem to be on her constantly? Does this mean that they may not be getting enough milk? Can anyone give me some advice.

Many thanks

Your new mummy should have been getting extra food during her pregnancy. I always try and give mine puppy food during and after preganacy - they also get scrambled eggs for breakfast - gives them extra protein. Keep an eye on her as you don't want eclampsia setting in.

Did you not read up or get advice before mating your girl and producing puppies, surely you should have learned all of this before deciding to breed?
