How much Brewers Yeast?

Leopold & Teri on Nutrition - Sat, August 16 2008

For those of you who give your pets Brewers yeast pills as flea prevention, how much do you give them a day? I've been wanting to try this for awhile & I finally bought a bottle today. It says 1 pill for every 10 lbs. I think I might have overdosed Loki & Leo.

I just follow the directions on the bottle. Some are 1 for 10#s and some are 1 for 5. I don't think they'll suffer any ill effects from having too much.

I couldn't tell you. I took about 400 of them one time, and all it got me was locked in the bathroom with mom shoving peroxide down my throat and making me puke. I'm okay, though. They were tasty. Some nice cat knocked over an almost full bottle for me a few weeks ago.

They were eating them like they were treats! I'll have to make sure I keep the bottle put up. I see you have your cats trained Madeleine. The boys are trying to train Thor.

The peroxide is yucky. Jasper got a bottle of Tylenol off of the kitchen table once and there were pills all over the back yard. We both had the peroxide but it was only Jasper that had a reaction. I was clean.

Jasper loves to stand on the kitchen table. Mom has to Jasper proof the house before he comes over.

That's usually the first thing my dogs eat out of their bowls. They love them!
