What vitamins can I give my stud dog to improve his fertility?

The only thing you need to do is feed Bagira a good-quality dog food. It is completely balanced with all the nutrients he needs. Before breeding, you should talk to your vet about recommended screening tests.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Kaya. If she is eating a well balanced quality diet, there is no reason to add a daily vitamin. The diet is designed to meet all of her nutritional needs. Look for a diet that is certified by AAFCO. This means that the food has been tested and is appropriate for her needs. While pregnant and then lactating, she should eat puppy food for the extra calories, fat and protein content. I hope this information helps!

Pregnant bitches should be fed a high quality, complete food and should be fed the puppy stage from 6-7weeks plus to ensure a higher calorie intake. They should not need extra supplementation and be sure not to over supply calcium as this can predispose to eclampsia during birth or nursing

As long as your dogs are getting a high quality dog food, you do not need to give them any vitamins. Their food will provide all the vitamins they need. You can give them glucosamine, which is a dietary supplement that helps with joint health. Typically it's given as 20 mg/lb of body weight, and you can find canine glucosamine tablets at the pet store. One of the most important things to do is have yearly vet health checks for them to make sure everything is ok. Be sure to keep up to date with their vaccines, flea treatment, deworming treatments, and heartworm treatments. Also have regular dental cleanings done with the vet. Just like humans, dogs need their teeth cleaned, and severe dental disease can lead to other problems such as liver abscesses and endocarditis from bacteria traveling from the mouth via the bloodstream. I hope this helps!

This is a very good question! It is always wise to be proactive about our pet's health. If you ever have concerns about how your dog is doing then a call and visit to your vet can help to set your mind at ease. Things to watch for that would indicate health problems include vomiting, diarrhea, decreased appetite and energy level, unusual behaviors and limping. Discuss food recommendations with your regular veterinarian. Brands such as Purina, Hills and Royal Canin all have veterinarians on-staff to ensure their food is top quality and nutritionally balanced. If you are feeding a good balanced diet then supplements of vitamins and minerals are not necessary.

It's not recommend to give pregnant dogs supplements during pregnancy as it can lead to serious problems. Excess calcium above the amount provided by a high quality diet suppresses parathyroid hormone production, and increases the bitch's risk of puerperal hypocalcemia. Excess vitamin A has been associated with congenital defects, including cleft palates. Dogs produce sufficient vitamin C of their own and do not require supplementation. Excess vitamin D may complicate the calcium mobilization ability of the bitch. I would not give Cheetah a vitamin injection. Best of luck.

Hi there. If Ace is healthy and is eating a good quality commercial dog food, there is no particular need to supplement his diet with anything else. But if you want to, you could certainly give a daily probiotic such as Forti-Flora for dogs, as well as a multi-vitamin such as Pet-Tabs.
