shaneg 2,578 Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 I asked my vet about it before and he said it only kills the odd collie. He said he used it on collies for farmers when there was no other choice and it done no harm. But it was always a last resort using it he said Quote Link to post
pirate pack 109 Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 I still would not take the risk with collies has a local farmer killed 2 unrelated dogs he said he gave them 0.2 mill each,has said best to use for skin conditions and not has wormer Quote Link to post
gnipper 6,526 Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 (edited) Milbemax has got it in too for all the collie owners. Edited April 22, 2016 by gnipper Quote Link to post
THE GENERAL 1,982 Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 (edited) Only dogs with the MDR1 gene can have serious complications on ivermectin. Yes most collie types are renowned for having it, so do other types also. An easy test in the vets will let you know if a dog has it. There shouldn't be any collie in my terriers so hopefully if I feel the need to use it I will be ok, fingers crossed lol. Edited April 22, 2016 by THE GENERAL Quote Link to post
timmy k 591 Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 Has anyone used this stuff on collie blooded dogs, heard mixed reviews I wouldn't use it on Pepper but it'd sort them mangy terriers out...! I havnt got mangy terriers, their shitzu's in disguise . The lurcher I've got has beardie blood in her and can't Be arsed with different remedies, I'd rather give them all the same to save any messing and don't fancy paying Vets for a blood test Quote Link to post
