I have conflicting info on pregnancy. Does it increase bone (eclampsia) or increase more muscle meat? Also, do you continue heart worm medicine while pregnant?

I don’t feel that adding all that sodium and mystery solution are good to give our dogs, pregnant or not. We do use some Wal mart chicken but I try to avoid it when I can. There is a brand of chicken sold in grocery stores called Smart Chicken that has no additives.

Whether you give heartworm meds while a dog is pregnant is a personal choice. I think it depends on where you live and the heartworm risk in your area.

As for the eclampsia issue, I don’t ever adjust my dog’s diet much during pregnancy but they have been raw fed for several generations now. I have found that many of my bitches turn down RMBs and want more organ and boneless meat towards the end. I suggest you consult with a vet that is a nutritionist for advice on this issue. Here is a list of vets we have compiled to date, with the help of our customers. If you do not find a vet close by on our list, I would suggest doing a google search on holistic or homeopathic vets in your area.
