i've use ivomec and know others that use nothing else. except they give'em nomo for tapes. i've been using safeguard for a few years now and really like how the hounds do on it. i also give them equimax especially this time of year for heartworms. the equimax has ivomec and praziquintel which takes care of just about every worm a dog can get. at least i have great success with it.

I haven't tried it...lol but I think it has a bitter taste to the dogs and I just fill the rest of the syringe with pop or kool-aid like some others said and they seem to like that

The easiest way is to squirt it right on their dry dog food, they eat it right up and the food covers up the bad taste a little also

I just stick it on a piece of bread, easiest way I found to administer and they get it all.

TC had a product called Iver-On, a pour on. Called for 1ml per 22lbs. Absorbs through the skin. Seens that would be much easier than injecting or trying to feed. Anyone familiar with this?

I buy the wormer pill from chip off this board. I give one pill per dog every 3 months. its works well for me.

i want to use this ivomec starting Now till winter hits then stop. Then start back up in the spring time again.

My youngest dog is my trails pup he'll be 6 months old April 16th. he is a big male too. I think it would be ok to give it to him.

My vet also said if I wanted to just treat for heartworm only then 1/10th CC should do the trick but if i wanted to treat Heartworms and a few other worms to give the full amount by wieghing the dog and figure out how much to give. Thats what he told me.
I would go with that.I have been using it for years and never had a problem and still have a 11 year old hound that has been on it all his life.I just use during the skeeter months.

My vet gave me a formula of 1 part ivomec to 10 parts water (couple drops in each ear over two weeks) for the ear mites.
Also suggested I don't heart worm the same month I treat for ear mites as not to over do the dose.

Bunny- I had written you a reply to your PM but the darn thing timed out on me. To answer your question: Too much medicine in it....too many accidental OD's. May be sensitive dogs or could be the way it is mixed in the factory? I don't know?? Just not as safe as what I do IMO. Would rather do what I do and know its safe and know it works, than save a dollar and kill a dog on accident. JMO Not knocking your method, just the reason for mine.
