How much Ivomec do I give about a 60lb large dog?
Someone gave you a dose for the 2% Ivomec. It is wrong! Use the 1% Ivomec (Ivermectin for cattle and swine) at a dose of 1cc per 100lbs of body weight. You were told right about some herding breeds being sensitive to it like collies, border collies, ect… I use it on my German Shepherds. I don’t mix it with propylene glycol. I use a tb syringe and dose it at 1cc per 100lbs. The only one here that gets 1cc is my big male. Most of the bitches are dosed between 0.5cc and 0.8cc depending on their weights. If you have a 60 pound dog, I would give him a test dose of 0.2cc first, then give him the other 0.4cc of it about 5 days later. Always test the dog on Ivomec before you go ahead and give a normal dose. You are also right, it is the active ingredient in hearguard plus and Iverheart.
