I know he had 'Welpan' on the 24/12/08 and his next dose was due on the 8th Jan but when i asked the vet if i should come back for that she said no the injection she gave him was to cover 'all' parasites........ he is 12wks on Thursday... Apart from all this is he is a VERY happy, healthy, playful pup! He weighs 1kg, eats very well and drinks and wees loads!!! |
If these are truly ear mites and not sarcoptic mange or demodectic mange, I have no idea why a vet would use Ivermectin. It is used at an off-label dose for some types of mites and isn't a treatment I'd take lightly.
