[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1837504, member: 25884"] We used to use a very small dose for heifers in the barn if they were being difficult to milk, it was just enough to "smooth out the rough edges" while in the parlor... don't use it often, but the vet used it on a bull awhile back that we had to work on his feet, and I don't know what the dosage was... he weighed in the 16-1800 lb range I guess (neighbors bull with very long outer toes and a little limp). Put him down on the ground, and then when he got done, gave him something to counteract it and after about 10 minutes he got back up... Bull was not rank but he was a bull and not one we knew much about... safety's sake.....and did not fit in the chute or head catch... I will have to ask him.... I would like to keep a little on hand just in case we had to use it, like in the dart gun out at pasture.... [/QUOTE]
