If you have kennel, then I have a question.

What are you using for a Heart Wormer and General Wormer?

I'm really serious about this question so please refrain from some of the BS that seems to jump into every thread.

Thanks,
TUFF

I use Interceptor for heartworms and I test once every year for them. General worming once a year with Panacur. But I also test once a year for other worms like tapes.

I use Ivomec 1% monthly,...It gets all worms except tapeworms....I worm for tapes with safeguard......as needed...

Nonacona,

Is the Safeguard you use for horses or cattle?

by yellowrose of Texas on 14 September 2010 - 18:09

Tuffle:

Goat wormer by Safeguard (white liquid)       get it at all feed stores....18.95 a bottle    it is Panacur   but you get a whole big bottle for what you pay a vet 25.00 for only two doses.

Ivemectin     1%   in mouth with meat .

Tractor supply has it in a locked case.

General dewormer: Fenbendazole (aka Panacur or Safeguard) effective at 50mg/kg q24h PO for 5 days for taeniid infections.
This also treat hooks, whips, rounds, and giardia. The goat size bottle runs about $18, the big bottle about $100.
Giardia
tapes
hooks
whips
rounds

Safeguard at Tractor Supply

Heartworms: Ivermectin 1%, by mouth, I use dosage of .06mg/kg, every 4-6 weeks. see here. One bottle about $30 lasts 2 years.

Ivermectin at Tractor Supply (do NOT buy Ivomec Plus!!!!)

please ask your veterinarian to verify infomation received via the internet.

If you prefer prepackaged, you can order the Interceptor, Heartgard, etc from www.totalpetsupply.com much cheaper than anywhere else.

I use Panacur (ferbendozole)10% for sheep/cattle and horses,1ltr bottle costs me about £66 sterling,every 4 mth.
I was told never to use Ivermec on any herding breeds as it kills them ? is this true ?

by melba on 14 September 2010 - 19:09

Certain herding breeds have a problem with Ivermectin, namely Collies BUT I have had a Malinois last year have a reaction to it as well. The Mali recovered fully and went on as a dual purpose K9 with no other problems.

We use Ivomec 1% for heartworms, they stopped making it but Liquicare P for horses ( I don't have the dosage off hand but it is very small) and Safeguard goat dewormer.

I use Iverheart Plus for HW and general wormer and 2 times a year I worm with Safeguard. I test for HW every other year as pewr my vets advice because dogs are on HW preventative year round.
