Best Answer

Usually 7-10 days but it depends on breed, maturity, and method of dosing.

The injectable is given intramuscular, not sub-dermal which means you have to understand where and how to give the injection.

You also would have to be a doggie diagnostition to determine if penicillin is the drug of choice. Often, there are better (and less expensive) alternatives.

Most are also available in oral doses. Consult your Vet for the most appropriate regimen.
