Question
my female blue pittbull just had 9 pups on the 7th and i was wondering if i should change her diet? I have a male and a female blue and there very well behaved but since she had her pups she seems to be beging for table food wich is not a normal behavior from either of them.

Answer
Hi Stephen

You female should be on a high quality PUPPY food while she's nursing. Something high fat and protein.  Also, it would be a good idea to up her food a couple of cups as her body is producing milk and her puppies are leaching all her vitamins and minerals.

Good luck
