What kind of ivomec? need to start a 5 month pup

Post by BriarCreekBeagles »

What kind of ivomec injection should i give my dogs to grt them started for heartworms? Ivomectrin for cattle and swine, ivermectrin for horses or what ever there is. I am wanting to use it to prevent heartworms mainly and heard that it will kill all other worms as well i also have a 4 year old hound but am going to have him tested before i start.
Tanks any info is appreciated

Why shouldn't you use the PLUS version. Can it harm your dog!

Ditto 0.1 cc/10 lb. of dog. Like previously mentioned, don't use the Ivomec Plus.
