kjw Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 Well, if your vet called you at 9am the next day and admitted her mistake, that would go a long way with me. If she's teachable and you've been happy with her other work, I think dumping her over 1 mistake would be an over-reaction. None of these drugs are exactly harmless.

Guest RICHandJUDE Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 I have used Ace on numerous occasions for thunderstorms and have no adverse reactions. I have given it to both my greyhounds. I do only give them 10 MG, maximum of once per day, if needed. If I am home with them, then I usually don't drug them. I have never had a problem with my vet but when I call for any reason, I always tell them that I am calling about one of my greyhounds. Tha way they know I am calling about a greyhound and not my Beagle. Ace is to NEVER be given to a greyhound or any sight hound for that matter. I'm really surprised your vet didn't know this. Also, Boxers don't tolerate it well. I know some say it's ok in small doses...but why take the risk when there are other drugs to use? Amitriptyline can be given to greys and helps or valium if needed. I am so glad she is OK Sorry but I'll go along with my vets, all of whom have been treating hundreds, if not thousands of track and pet greys for decades. Ace is okay with proper dosing. I agree. I question my vet on things but I do trust him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliforniaGreys Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 Even if you're one who feels the drug is safe, and are using it for phobias, are you really happy with knowing how the drug works?
