I agree with Crystal, strongly, and here's why:
Angel Eyes contains Tylosin (Tylan), which is an antibiotic loosely related to erythromycin - so basically, you'd be giving your dog a daily, chronic dose of an antibiotic. Know what that leads to (in dogs as well as humans) -
antibiotic resistance. Yep. Scary stuff, potentially. So, let's say down the line, your dog developed colitis and needed Tylosin and/or erythro for treatment - might not work.
Not only that, but your dog's body could create
bacterial resistance related to the Tylosin. Meaning, a bacterial strain is now resistant to Tylosin and erythro and can never be treated with it should an infection occur (for whatever reason), thus, a different medication must be used. Which, essentially, is fine - but one can see how when this happens again and again, theoretically - this is HOW mega-viruses occur - this is how MRSA happens (remember that in the news?).
Probably WAY more than you ever wanted to know
but, for those reasons, that's why I wouldn't give my dog a daily antibiotic unless it was medically necessary. Whew!
