Hi, Mike,
I am 500 miles away right now. The next time I see
him I will ask detailed questions.
Usually safe doses of most things seem to be related
to the weight of the animal. I also know he has a
*LOT* of direct experience. He's been treating
ferrets for 34 years or more and often sees a dozen on
a given day.
BTW, Dr. Murray's comments on lupron matched
everything I've heard from him with one exception.
Dr. Murray said that ~10% of ferrets don't respond to
lupron. Our vet says in his experience the number is
closer to 50%. OTOH, he did prescribe it for Podo and
it definitely did work wonders.
All the best,
Caity and the fantastic four
