I finally found where it is posted at 1ml per 20 pounds. But is that under the skin or in the muscle? Thanks for all the great info on here. This site has a lot of good info. Brett

I give 2cc's under the skin, for kennel cough, snake bite, or a bad feeling dog etc.

It did help with kennel cough, I don't usually give anything but I have on occasion had some dogs that had a tough time with k-c, wouldn't eat, sneezing, hacking etc. every time I gave them pennicilin they eat the next day an were much better the next day. GOOD LUCK
P.S I gave it 2 days for k-c, 1.5cc's the 2nd day
