I just got from my vets office the Heartguard Plus (Ivermectin/Pyrantel) chewable for small dogs under 25 lbs. My girl is 3 months old and 2 pounds 1 oz. The chewable pill is kind of big in my opinion. Too big for my little girl to handle in one bite. I broke the pill into 4 pieces. She only ate 2 or a half of the pill. I tried over and over again to give her the rest, but she wouldn't take it - I'd put it in her mouth and she'd spit it right out. Not sure how to get her to take the entire thing?? Being so small I wouldn't think she would need to take the entire pill, but the directions said to make sure they take the entire thing or you have to restart the dose.... |
