Question
Hi, I was wondering what kind of suppliments to give our female yorkie as she has been bred (accidentally) by our male yorkie (not keeping a close enough eye); she has already had 2 litters and we wanted her to have a break.  I think that there body gets depleted in things like calcium and such.  what should I give her so that everything goes okay?

Answer
I'd talk to her vet before I gave her anything. Sometimes, too much calcium can be a bad thing. He may have a good vitamin that you can buy. Usually, they're not that expensive, if she needs anything at all. Your vet may just suggest that you keep her on a good diet, and that be it. I'd talk to him before you decide to give her anything. He knows your dog and her health history best.
