Dogs

Physical, emotionally, etc.
Besides good quality food, vitamins, and extra love, what other things can I give her, or do for her to keep her extra healthy and to have pups safely. I know a lot, I just want to do all that I can to help her along the way.

There is a great book I would recommend called "breeding dogs for dummies" it is a great resource. feed the mother not just a good quality food but be sure it is puppy food while pregnant and while nursing. There is extra vitamins they need. Also give her a scrambled egg a day (no milk though) for extra protein. Your vet can recommend vitamins for her and always check with the vet before giving vitamins for proper dosing and too much can cause complications and so can the wrong kinds. God luck to you.

   You should take her to your vet. They will be able to determine if she is pregnant for you, and to help you set up a care plan for her and the puppies. Your vet is your best source of information about your dog’s health, especially in such an important time.
