jack,
i got a 8 week pup that i believe is in need of an antibiotic. He had his eye scratched fairly deep. wanted to know what you would recommend. (do you still dose a pup at 5mg/lb. like an adult?)
thank you for your time and expertise.

I would take him to the vet though, as they have have special neomycin/gentamicin eye drops/cremes, with minor anti-inflammatories, that not only will heal the eye, and protect the eye, but will stop it from burning, which will make the pup forget about it.
Good luck,
Jack
thank you...
