No ivm for horses is too strong for dogs. If your dog has worms and an itchy bottom I'd be using a wormer with praziquantal in it . Iver won't eradicate some worms,it's why they add praziquantal to someone horse wormers with iver. The itchiness could also be caused by grass allergies if he's going out on the grass to do his business.Try mixing some alpha keri oil in some water or use coconut oil and sponge on the coat to stop the itching. One of my cavaliers gets itchy with grass pollens in summer and I sponge her coat after she been outside.
Thank you. I never thought about allergies. He is outside a fair amount as he accompanies me most everywhere I go. I will also look into the praziquantal wormer. The high eosinophils in blood work indicate possible parasites or it could mean a few more serious things that the vet believes she has ruled out. I just dont know enough about what all parasites could be out there besides the common 4 worms which should be taken care of by the usual methods. I kind of worry about a tick borne disease but that doesnt match up with the GI issue and temp. Thank you for your time.
