Answer
Good afternoon, Jason.

You will, indeed, want to make sure your pregnant female does get adequate nutrition.  She, at 9 months old, is still growing and developing.  The strain of the puppies will surely take a lot out of her.

First and foremost, I would consult with your vet and make sure she is OK to have these puppies.

Second, I would look at foods like Chicken Soup for the Dog Lover's Soul.  It can't typically be found in any of the chain pet supply stores, however, it can be found in a lot of the smaller stores and is quite cost effective for the quality of the product.  

Best of luck to you and your pups.
