Just the usual Benny.
500 grams of meat & your choice of quality kibble.
Add Calcium & keep worming up todate.

Keep her 80/90% fit.
Free galloping in the paddock with a young-one usually does the trick & complements each other.

Good luck.

She is a really small dog so i think 400g is more then enough. And daily walk is a must

Benny - I was told by the late,great vet Reg Hoskins that a small daily dose of Vitamin E is good for fertility-probably because it keeps the red blood cells up.

Benny, when she does come in, double the dose of daily vitamin E for her whole season, as it does help with fertility, as Grant said.
