Today my vet gave me some metacam for me to have at home, in case I feel Barney needs it before he goes back in 2 weeks.
It is dog metacam, and she told me that he should have a 20kg dog dose as he is 3.4kg. Anyone know how many mls this is?
This is MUCH higher than my old non-rabbit-savvy vets used to prescribe, they used to say 2 times the cat dose with the ability to up it to 3x cat dose if needed - well 3 times the cat dose is only 1x the dog dose! A 20kg dog dose is much higher than a 3.4kg dog dose! Have to say though, the old dosage still had a big effect.
