How often do I give my small dog this pill?

This product is not meant for small dogs. I would purchase the pill for small dogs or consult your vet to see if you may be able to cut them in half. My vet recommended that I give this pill once every 3 weeks instead of every month because of the life cycle of tape worms. The long and short is: Call your vet. It only takes a couple minutes and that'll be the best advice.

I give my small dogs (the dosage on pkg is for small dogs, between 6-25 lbs, so I don't know why someone else said this isn't for small dogs, just buy the right dosage!!) one pill once every 3 months, for preventative measures. If your dog(s) show signs of worms, then you can dose monthly, or best bet, contact your vet. My vet said this wormer is a good one, as it gets rid of round, hook, and tape worms. And unlike another commenter, this package does NOT list dosing instructions, it just says contact your vet. It took research and contacting my vet to figure out that info.

If you are witnessing worms in your dog's stool, worm according to packaged instructions; wait a week, and worm again. If you are worming just as a preventative measure, perhaps once every 3-4 months. If your dog is on a heartworm preventative, the majority of brands will deworm your dog at the same time; therefore, no additional worming is necessary.

I gave my pet one dose & that's all I needed to get rid of them.I guess if you keep seeing worms in his poop you would have to do it again.

Not exactly sure, could look on bottle when I get home. But I have 4 dogs that get 1 tsp twice a day so I go through 8 tsp per day. I order are every 11 or 12 weeks. Hope this helps.

My dog is 4.5 lbs, and I budget these treats into her diet. She gets one when I leave the house, or half a one if I leave the house more than once that day. So I would say one treat a day maximum for a tiny dog. She now has a prescription diet and cannot have ANY treat with protein in it, but these were her favorite treats.

I don't know for sure but a capsule that holds 1 tsp might be too big to get your dog to take.

I buy these in bulk and they last a long time, Also note these are the best pills you can give your animals, but with a puppy they might go potty more, I took my puppy off until she became a year old. because I noticed her potty more in the house, once I took her off I was able to train her better.

it depends how often you need to use it as a correction for the dogs behavior.

I also use a small dose and have had it last a couple years for a bichon and it still worked.

Check with your VET. They are supposed to do the same thing, so it might be considered "double dosing".

I'd say it's about 6 inches long but it's better for a cat or small dog. A large dog could possibly bite it in half. Better to hide the dog's pill in a piece of food or peanut butter or a "Pill Pocket" - a product on the market for giving pills to dogs.

My 11-year old lab mix thinks the hard pills are treats--I call her for a "treat," put her on a sit and throw one up in front of her and she catches it in the air and eats it, looking for more after finishing. She will also eat it when I just put it in the bowl with her dry food. My 14-year old papillon, who has bad teeth and weighs only 8 pounds, will eat a half pill only when we put peanut butter on it. I have never tried the soft ones, but perhaps my little pap would prefer those.

My vet has my 71 lb. dog on 2 tablets of 425 mg each. He gets them each morning 1 hr. before any food.

My dogs arwMy dog like yours are tiny.For the first few days, until their systems get used to it, it REALLY works. What you want to do is only give them half. After that, it lasts about 6 hours. I like this product and so do they. I also buy the joint & hip, not just for the obvious reason, the ingredients help to calm as well.

These are small with a small cavity to put the pills into, my dogs love them and so easy to give with meds. I would say even a small dog could eat these with no problem.

I'm also unsure, but I have 2 dogs and they each get one every day. I think the package lasts about a month, and it works! One of my dogs has arthritis and has greatly improved!

My 10 year old Yorkie loves the standard pill and we use them as treats. I break them in half and we have not had a problem with him taking them. He was a little hesitant the first couple of times but would eat the whole bottle if he could now.

We have two dogs that need 4 pills/tabs daily so we go through them very quickly. Sorry, but I don't think I can give you a helpful answer other than to make sure that the zip top is closed tightly.

All of my dogs are small and I had no problems with it. I use it as a supplement to frontline plus in between monthly doses
