Is this safe to deworm dogs?

I would be very careful if I were you I would ask a vet.I only used it on my guinea pigs for mites.It worked really well but it might not take well to dogs.I only rubbed it on their skin as it is too strong to feed it to smaller animals.Remember,this is designed for use with horses and they are much larger than a dog.Ask a vet or research more on the net.Good luck.

It is safe but there is no way accurately measure the dosage of the paste to the lbs of the dog to administer the correct amount. I personally find the liquid much easier to measure.

Yes, just use the pound measurement on the package to give them the right amount. This is also used for Guinee Pig mites. Actually, it is the same medicine that doctors prscribe in pill form to humans for scabies and other parasites. It can be applied on the skin behind the ears for guinee pigs too, but orally for dogs. Just make sure you look up the amount per 100 lbs on the package, the syringe is marked in sections for easy dispensing by weight.

Yes, but you have to look up the proper dosage. I have used it on my dogs for years.

I can't really advise you since I haven't tried it on a dog, but i would look it up on forums. Try "Does Ivermectin Paste Dewormer work for dogs"

According to what it says on the instructions there are no dangers/hazards to domestic animals; only to the targeted grubs & pests. There are far worse parasites out there, but if in doubt, check with your vet to be certain

No this product is for puppies and dogs only. You need to look for a dewormer for cats. Drontal dewormer for cats is an effective product that treats hookworms, roundworms, and tapeworms. A lot of the wormers only treat one of the types of worms. If your uncertain of the type of worm you are treating, it's best to buy a product that treats all three.

I use Ivermectin for cattle and swine on my dogs. It's 0.5cc's per 50 lbs. I have 2 large dogs over 100 pounds so I give them one full cc per month in their food. I have never had any issues and it keeps all internal parasites away. Vets will NOT approve of this. I just tell my vet that this is what we use, period. This takes the place of heartworm meds by the way. Just be careful with your topical flea meds. Some of the flea meds have the heartworm med combined. You do NOT want to overdose this stuff. It can be fatal. We buy just plain topical flea meds for the dogs, and we buy the Ivermetic for the parasites. DO NOT USE ON CATS! I use Ivermectin for cattle and swine on my dogs.

It has permethin in it and if you spray and get direct contact it kills the mites. I do not know if it safe for animals.

I never used it to wash my dogs. I only used it in my laundry, cleaning the house and bed bug prevention. It says its non-toxic but I wouldn't bathe my dog in it.

Sorry for the late reply I have been out of the country! The product label indicates the dosage for a 10 lbs dog so I called my Vets office and they it is safe just follow instructions.

Yes. I've used this for 18 years. I live in a high risk area for heartworms. You need the to know the correct dose for your dogs weight. Like Heartguard do not use with herding breeds.

Not sure, but it's certainly worth trying. It's inexpensive, and simple to use. I'm not sure that it is safe for pets, or fish. The basic principle seems similar to a hot tub, except the temperature. Good luck.

I am inclined to think that it would be perfectly safe for your dog. If you have any concerns about this, they are better addressed by a veterinarian.

Hello, thank you for your question, we are very sorry we couldn't respond you earlier. Yes, the product is 100% safe to use on dogs and cats.

I don't think so. I have been using it for years and have never seen a problem. There are warnings on the bag about keeping pets away from the product until it is watered into the ground. I have 3 dogs and I am very careful, but have never had a problem.

The package says "can be used by dogs of all breeds and ages." It is just lavender and chamomile so it shouldn't cause any problems. i have found it quite effective on my dog.

I would say definitely not! My experience with this spray is that it's strong enough to choke on if you inhale it directly and I think it could injure an animal unprepared for its effect.
