Janet do you think I should give Halle a pet cal? I did the last time. But there were four of them. I just wandered with only one if she would need the supplement. She looks to have plenty of milk so I haven't given her any yet. She has eaten a little bit of kibble today and has had water and of course a treat  I think I'll go out tomorrow and get puppy food for her to eat. And probably some cottage cheese and/or yogurt. |
You know Paula....a lot of the people on YT say not to give extra calcium but my Vet has me give my mothers 1/4 of a tablet of PetCal as soon as we know they are pregnant. I told him what they said on YT and he said there was no way the HE wouldn't give it. They need it for not only their bones but for the puppy development. I've followed his advice and have never had a problem.
You'll think I'm crazy, but I really baby my mom's after whelping. They get scrambled eggs for breakfast with some of the whelping pudding. For lunch they get canned food with some whelping pudding and then for supper they get canned food, whelping pudding and some grated carrots....lol.
