Topic Dog Boards / Breeding / When to change to puppy food for pregnant bitch?
- By LucyDogs [gb] Date 20.05.10 20:44 UTC
Can someone remind me, I know the BOTB says to start slightly increasing food from week 6 of pregnancy, but when do you change to puppy food?

I changed over slowly between weeks 7 & 8. :) I started getting her used to goats milk about that time too, just a small drink at bedtime.

I change over between 6-7 weeks.

Great thanks. Can only find 2 kg or 15 online, I suppose I will use 15 kg by the time you've fed the bitch through pregnancy and whelping and weaned the puppies too. I can always donate the remainder to new puppy owners!

ive got though more then 15kg lol but it depends size of breed and litter ;-)
- By LucyDogs [gb] Date 21.05.10 10:56 UTC
Small breed and small litter expected here. But have found a 7.5kg, yay! :)

i would personally go for the 15kg bag then you will have plenty to give to the new owners :-)
