Is a dog a mammal?
Dogs are mammals and viviparous; puppies are nursed by the mother unless her milk is insufficient.

What should a mother dog eat for nutrition after giving birth?
A newly delivered mother dog needs lots of nutrition: feed puppy formula, goat milk powder, and high-energy canned food, plus immune- and calcium-boosting supplements.

Why a Mother Cat May Kill Her Kittens

Does More Eye Discharge After Changing Dog Food Mean the Food Is Bad?
Extra eye discharge after switching dog food does not automatically mean the food is low quality — it can be a mild adjustment reaction, a food intolerance, or something unrelated like blocked tear ducts or an ear infection. Some foods are high in salt, and if your dog drinks little, this can cause 'inner heat' with more discharge, bad breath, and dry stool. Rule out the food by checking the label, watching overall health, and if discharge is thick, colored, or lasts over a week, see a vet.
