How to Supplement Nutrition When a Husky Is Pregnant?

       The gestation period of a husky is different from that of humans. The average pregnancy duration for a husky is about 63 days, possibly giving birth up to a week earlier or later. Therefore, from pregnancy to about one month can be considered the early pregnancy stage. At this time, dietary and lifestyle habits do not require significant changes. Since the puppies inside the dog’s abdomen have not yet formed, the demand for food quantity is not that high. During this period, you can continue the usual feeding methods, but pay attention to choosing foods that are easy to digest and absorb, with comprehensive nutrition to feed the dog. At the same time, because the embryo is unstable in early pregnancy, vigorous exercise must be absolutely prohibited during this period. Except for walking, all running and jumping activities should be forbidden to prevent miscarriage.

Naturally, the feeding demand will gradually increase. At this point, it is necessary to meet the mother dog's dietary needs while avoiding nutritional excess that leads to obesity and oversized puppies, which could cause difficult labor. Therefore, a reasonable nutritional balance is required.
