seeing as ivomectin is the primary ingredient in Heartgard and Heartgard Plus I 
find it kind of interesting that they claim it isn't labeled for small animal 
use?   Anja

I understand there is a study being done by Davis University, CA   
regarding Ivomectin being given to dogs.  apparently some dogs are   
allergic to this and DNA can tell which ones are etc.    Since   
Ivomectin  is not labeled for small animal use as a wormer or for   
heartworm prevention, it might be a good idea to get on this study and   
find out more about it.  Are some dogs really allergic to it?  Do some   
have a sensitivity?   Since a puppy I sold recently was given it at a   
young age and almost died, it seems like it might be worth taking a   
look at this.    I understand the kit for the DNA swab is free at this   
point.  Probably someone on this list can give the name of the contact   
for this study at Davis.
