Using antibiotics like this is what causes resistant strains of bacteria to crop up and there is possible risk of infection to humans. I understand you do not have the $$ for a vet but please, please, please, seek the advice of a professional. What you got at the feed store is intended to use in livestock and chickens and such. I have used this in chickens in their water as you describe, I would never dream of giving it to my pets without veterinary supervision.
Thank you so much.That's why I was looking all over about it 1st.Well,I do have a friend that works with a vet finding homes for animals so they don't have to go to the pound.And they do neuter clinics and such.I just thought about her after your reply.I'll call her and see if I can use the one she works with.Hope he ain't from 200 miles away and only comes on clinic days which is 2 X a month.Thanks so much.
