Dog (rescue mutt) has gotten into a porcupine 3 times already this year, and while I'm usually able to get the ones in the head, I usually have to bring the retard to the vet for the mouth ones.
Wondering if anyone has a dosage rate for ketamine (if that will even work?) or any other suggestions on how I can get him slowed down or knocked out so I can do it myself?
Getting to the point where I'm think about just shooting him, and the kids wouldn't like that.

They make natural calming chews for dogs with anxiety so they don't freak out as much in the car, maybe try that before giving your dog whatever fuckin ketamine you seem to have lying around???

>can't look up mg/kg doses for intramuscular ketamine for dog sedation
>aggressive to everyone in the thread like his pitbull
It's ~5mg per lb of dog intramuscular, mix it with saline since you're clearly buying a gram off your guy and not sitting on a bottle of Ketaset. It's not normally used by itself for sedation. I hope you know how to do an injection. Gabapentin is effective in relaxing dogs, but I've seen dogs undergoing trauma who just become more upset and intoxicated if it isn't administered in a pleasant manner. Diphenhydramine can be used orally to make a dog sleepy, I'm sure it's easier to get dogs to eat a pill than a cat. Hell, you can give a dog xanax or whatever other benzo your trailer trash peers have lying around.You can't just pick up a 'simple sedative' for a dog to knock them out because of retards like you who can't even look up 'ketamine dose dog sedation' and bark like a shitbull at anyone making an innocent suggestion. Someone like you armed with a bottle of xylazine is as likely to kill their dog as to sedate it.

My old man used to give his dogs a shot or two of whisky to calm his dogs down in the 1980s not sure it's recommended these days

I've had dexmeditomidine and atravet suggested, but again, where?
Vets don't give this shit out, at all. They want your money, they don't give a Fuck about the animal.

I find holistic dog massage therapy is great for calming my German sheperd breed dog down when he's anxious or needs calming

The only thing I've heard about is melatonin. But it's not a sedative. More like something to ease you into sleep. Look up the dosage. I thing 1 or 2mg is used by humans to help fall asleep.
At least is sold in supermarkets.
If the dog is stupid or aggressive, might wanna consider getting rid of it?

if it hasn't learned not to try to eat porcupines after 3 times, do you really want to keep it after it tries again?

I always feel much more chill after a weight lifting session at the gym. Maybe you can get your dog into lifting to calm if down as well?

Have you seen those commercials about green noise calming you down? That might be worth a shot, along with maybe putting the dog in a blue room: blue is the most calming color after all.

all the edamameboi comments are clearly from citiots that have never had to deal with an animal in distress
i watched a 2200lb blue angus cross bull bend the front gates on the squeeze chute in a homicidal rage after it somehow kissed a porcupines ass in the feedlot. dogs arent much more civilized
in the old days you could bum reds (horse tranqs) off the truckers. the bullhaulers were always a sure bet. those crazy fuckers kept a lunchbox full of uppers and downers for whatever the mood was

>dog has been twatted in the face THREE times in a single year, still hasn't learned
>what do
The dog clearly feels incomplete without a mouthful of porcupine pricks; leave them in.

Tylenol, unless you have concerns about your dog developing autism

Never mind your question. Anyone who needs to ask something like that has no business even attempting to do it. If you own a dog then it's your responsibility to protect them from their own animal stupidity - if your dog gets attacked by a porcupine not once, but three times in ten months, you are a negligent owner and should turn any and all pets you have over to someone more competent. The same applies if you're too poor, lazy, or miserly to take a dog (that your negligence has injured) to the vet for proper treatment. I feel extremely sorry for your kids and I hope they rise above their awful upbringing and become better men than you are.
