You are either full of it or a complete idiot. i have never seen a dog die from Ivomec or any other de-wormer for that matter=============
ORIGINAL: coolbrze0
I worm similar to daleh, but be VERY careful w/ Ivermectin (Ivomec). It can and will cause liver damage if given to much and I've seen quite a few dogs die from it. The rule of thumb for Ivomec is 1/10 cc for every 10 lbs. of dog. I have over a dozen beagles and a few yellow/black labs and for a 22 lb. beagle, I give 0.22 cc. Hope this helps. Ivo is mainly used for heartworms and you need a heartworm test prior to giving. If your dog has them, Ivo can cause them to dislodge in the heart and lungs and kill the dog. Ivo is a no no for collies and herding dogs.
I use Canine Allwormer every 3 months, and Safeguard liquid every 2 mo. alternating between the last 2. I also use Nemex 2 & Dworm for puppies and pregnant females. If you have any questions or doubts, just ask, it's MUCH better to be safe than sorry and I've been doing this a long time.

PROVE IT?
Most folks as soon as something goes wrong they blame the dog food.
Next it would be the Medicine.
Kidney faliure can be caused by alot of things.
Mostly when you turn a dog loose to hunt you don't see the dog for hours, even days sometimes.
If Your dogs died from kidney faliure (if this true) more than likely got it from you leaving ant-freeze out were they could drink it.
Clean-up your place and provide some real evidence before you stick your other foot in your mouth.
Question?
Does anyone have aLab or Bird Dog lost at 3-6 years old due to Kidney Faluire fromn Ivomec or any other Meds?
