A five-year-old Golden Retriever bitch is presented two weeks post-partum with a litter of ten puppies that are strong and growing. The owner noted that the bitch has been weak and trembling since that morning. 

As you are examining her, she begins to have tonic convulsions (involuntary contractions of voluntary muscles).

What bloodwork will the veterinarian most likely request prior to treatment?
