Eclampsia In a Dog

by Carly

can i put my pups back on their mum she had a mild form of eclampsia last nyt. she got antibiotic from the vet. shes perfect today, im keepin her away from them will i let her into them?

My Comment:

Sorry but this is impossible for me to now. It all depends on the findings.

In general the smaller breeds are more likely to develop milk fever. In my experience, once the had show the tendency to develop the condition you should be very careful and supply extra calcium and restrict the "milk loss"

But it all comes down to how severe the signs where and how low the calcium levels where.

The only one who can judge this is your own vet.

All the best
