🍼 Pregnant dog feeding chart

The chart below is an approximate recommendation for your pregnant and nursing dog's nutrional needs concerning our insect-based Puppy food. The chart is based on how far along the dog is in her pregnancy and her normal weight, but you should also keep the following guidelines in mind:

  • During the first four weeks of pregnancy, the dog has approximately the same energy needs as usual
  • During the last five weeks of pregnancy, she has an increased energy requirement of approximately 25-50%.
  • The energy requirement is greatest during nursing, hence she can have free access to food.
