Make sure that you also include pyrantel or fenbendazole to kill the intestinal parasites.

It is done every 6 weeks. I'm not sure if it's safe for pregnant dogs and am waiting on my vet to call me back. I will post as soon as I hear it.

I have been using the cattle/swine injectable (given orally) as a heartworm preventative for years. The local TS carries it but I've found it is even cheaper if gotten via a catalog or online.
The dose I use is 1/10 cc per 11 pounds bodyweight, usually I squirt it onto a big vitamin pill, let it soak in and then hide the pill in peanut butter. The dogs hate the taste of the Ivermectin and spew it everywhere if I just syringe it into their mouths.

You can buy it at tractor supply and even though it doesn't say for dogs it is used by many breeders. It's the injectible kind, 1% solution. It's probably locked in a case. It's a brown box with a white bull on the front of it.

You give 1/10 of a CC per 10 pounds, but it's not injected, it's just squirted on their food or in some canned food or whatever and let them eat it. I haven't given it to my dogs yet and just wanted other opinions first. I also own Mastiffs so it would be more economical.
Thanks
