Yes, lasalocid can be toxic to cattle if ingested in excessive amounts. It is an ionophore antibiotic used in livestock to promote growth and prevent coccidiosis, but high doses can lead to toxicity, causing symptoms such as incoordination, lethargy, and even death. Careful dosage management is essential to ensure the safety and health of cattle. Always consult a veterinarian before using lasalocid or any medication in livestock.

What effect does lasalocid have on dogs?

Small amounts like a calf pellet or two every once in a while are not bad (unless it's a small dog). If the dog eats a large amount it can kill them. The lasalocid will kill off the good bacteria in the dogs digestive tract causing digestive tract failure. If a dog eats a large amount of feed with lasalocid in it, get a probiotic supplement for dogs at the pet store and keep him on them for several days.
