Mike, how do you give them the liquid? It is such a small amount how do you make sure they get it all?

Thanks

I got rid of the tube and now use the Ivomec injection orally. Gave it to him 6-11 for first time. No problems. Mixed it with OJ.

I use a 1cc syringe for ivomec. I also give comfortis for fleas, works so much better than frontline, especially when you can't keep your dogs out of the water!

Do you use the ivomec monthly or yearly?

I went to the feed store and the told me they use ivercare(ivermectrin) past 1.87% for their dogs. Anyone use this? Doesn't sound as percise. Any opinons?

Personally I give my dog Sentinel, it is a heart worm, hook worm, round worm, and flea preventative. I also cost me $272 for a year supply from the vet. Iverheart was $29 for 6 months from the same vet (for my other dog). Iverheart is a ivermectin based preventative, same thing as heart gard.
