Saving money by doing it yourself.

Does anyone out there go to say Tractor Supply or Rural King and buy some cow wormer, weight their hound accordingly and give that amount to their hounds, to save money rather go to the vet's office???

Casey you are referring to Safeguard. If you plan to but it in the cattle liquid you'll most likely have to order it from Jeffers. Tractor Supply carries the goat liquid which is the same thing but in a smaller bottle. Thats what I use and give it at 1cc per 5 lbs. of body weight for 3 straight days. Yes it is more economical than taking them to the vet.

FastFeet: I think you will find that most beaglers with a pack of hounds are doing their own worming, shots and more.. For my worming plan, using Safeguard, check my site:

Safeguard or Ivermectin? Make sure you use the correct dose - Safeguard 3 days in a row, Ivomec 0.10cc/10 lbs. of dog, a 20 lb. beagle gets 0.2cc Ivomec.
