For me, the 40 microgram dose was always plenty. A thousand micrograms is a milligram, so 100 micrograms is 0.1 mg, and 40 micrograms is 0.04 mg. &lt;p&gt;

So yes, even at a high end dose a 10kg dog only needs 1mg of apo, which is about 0.33 ml. I would use maybe half that to start. I rarely needed more.

Enjoy!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
