Question
my bulldog is 53 days pregnant,she has a very sensitive tummy.when i have bred before my other bulldog ate fresh cooked chicken, beef mince with small amount of biscuits at this stage 3 times daily,
but this dog will only eat chicken on its own ( diaorrea!!) or complete food biscuits, but ive been told that complete biscuit food is not good for her and can cause walrus pups,but it really is all she will eat, she seems happy enough and quite huge, is feeding her complete at this stage ok, please help as im worried to bits about this litter, had 2 litters before frm another bitch no probs.  

Answer
I feed my females regular dry kibble right up until 2 weeks before their due date. Then I feed a can of quality food once a day split into 2 meals along with the kibble. I've never had a walrus puppy or a water puppy. If you're worried about it, give her folic acid as a guaranty.
