pre-breeding nutrition in the bitch

Recently read the article (I believe sponsored by Eukanuba/Iam's) from several years ago that recommends switching the bitch to a 30% protein, 20% fat diet with specific omega 3 to 6 ratios several weeks before breeding to improve conception rate/live births?

Is there anything to this? Has anyone tried it and seen better outcomes?
