Hi
my bitch is day 36 today so putting her food intake up now.
i am putting her on burns food for pregnant bitches. is this ok?
i will be mixing it with chicken or mince etc for the protein. is this ok?
i am worried about over doing the protein.
any advice would be good.

I personally don't change the food regime until 6 weeks, when I simply increase the proportion of protein to carbohydrate and fat. I don't increase the overall quantity for another week when I give three meals instead of two, so that she's getting about 1ΒΌ her usual amount, again cutting the carb and giving more protein. The last thing you want is a fat bitch with oversized whelps. ;)
