The dose varies depending upon the dog's health status, the concentration of the penicillin, the location of the infection and the type of bacteria causing the infection. Your veterinarian will prescribe what your dog needs after an examination. Incidentally, Pen-G (the specific drug you reference) is primarily used in livestock, not in dogs.

What is the amount of penicillin given in a shot?

Penicillin has very large margin of safety. Usual adult dose of procaine penicillin is 600,000 I.U. (International units) per day. The adult dose of penicillin can be given up to 24 million I. U. of crystalline penicillin per day in meningitis. The first dose of penicillin, that was given to the patient as trial dose was only 5000 I.U. few times per day. It was given during second world war. The most wonderful thing that this small dose did work. The patient started to improve. Later on died of infection, only because the stock of penicillin got exhausted.
