Best Answer

1ml per 100 lbs of body weight (10 pound dachshund would need 1/10th of a mL)

2nd answer-- It depends on which type of penicillin you are using, if you are talking about the Penicillin injectable 300,000 units per ml, it is dosed at 1ml per 10-20 lbs of body weight. IM or SUBQ--More commonly 1 ml per 20 pounds, given once a day, for at least 3 days. Do not exceed more than 3ml per injection site. So if you have a 100 pound dog, you should give a total of 5ml but not all in the same injection site, I'd probably do 2.5ml in one location, and then another 2.5 in a different location.

The dosage depends upon the formulation of the penicillin (oral, topical cream, injectable), the type of penicillin (K-Pen, Pen G, etc.) and the infection it is treating. You should speak to your veterinarian if you believe your dog has an infection that needs antibiotics.

I can't say which website would be best to find a good deal for closeout running shoes. But I did find some in bodyandsolesports.com and in beso.com if you would like to try.
