So from what I understand, eclampsia could happen during pregnancy, after and in future pregnancies...
and has to do with calcium..Is that correct?
How did your girl act? what advice would you have?

And I do believe Mom will be spaying her dog after this pregnancy...

Oh and her name is Millie, Missy is one of her other dogs that has been very sick for the last 2 months, she has put thousands of dollars on vet bills and they still have no clue on what has caused her to stop eating and to go into kidney failure...
