     In fact, dogs are mammals just like humans, so maternal care is very important. While protecting the mother, the puppies also need to be fed. If there is a problem with milk production, do not worry. You can choose to stew some chicken soup, pig's feet soup, or crucian carp soup for the dog. These foods are very good for promoting lactation because dogs endure a lot during delivery and often lose a lot of blood, so they need supplements. Humans also eat these things after giving birth. However, when preparing these, try to add less salt because dogs are not suitable for eating very salty food.
     2. Postpartum care precautions.

     Additionally, after a dog gives birth, special attention is required because the mother's milk is very important. The milk in the first week provides many antibodies and immunity to the puppies. If the dog eats well, she will be healthier. Therefore, after one week postpartum, you should quickly stimulate milk production and never let the puppies go hungry. Also, after giving birth, dogs often lack calcium, so you can buy some calcium supplements for them. Another point to note is that dogs should not consume too much sugary water after giving birth, as this will turn their milk into "medicated water," causing puppies digestive problems. Moreover, never feed dogs cod liver oil because it reduces milk production, which contradicts the original intention.
     The above is some information about what dogs should eat after giving birth to promote lactation. Actually, dogs are similar to humans; as long as you take care of them carefully, they can have a good recovery period. However, you should also carefully check online about postpartum care to avoid any oversights, which can cause many aftereffects.
