How to give PAWER: syringe, dose and mixing tips

PAWER Daily is a liquid with a syringe marked in ml. The dose is 1.7 ml per 10 kg of body weight per day. Draw it up, give it straight or mixed with food, and keep it the same each day. Vet first if your dog takes medication or has a condition.

Before you start

PAWER Daily is for adult dogs, not puppies under one year. If your dog takes medication, has a condition, or is pregnant or nursing, ask your vet first. Never give it to a cat or other animal.

Reading the syringe

The syringe is marked in ml. Draw up to the line you need, check it at eye level, and wipe off any drops on the tip. Rinse it after use as the label directs.

Working out the dose

The dose is 1.7 ml per 10 kg of body weight per day. Weigh your dog, divide by ten, then multiply by 1.7.

20 kg dog: 20 / 10 = 2, then 2 x 1.7 = 3.4 ml
30 kg dog: 30 / 10 = 3, then 3 x 1.7 = 5.1 ml

Weight changes, so re-check now and then. The dose finder does the sum in a second.

Giving it

Two simple ways:

straight into the side of the mouth, slowly, letting your dog swallow between squirts
mixed into a small portion of normal food

If you mix it, use a small portion. A dog that leaves half the bowl has not had the full dose.

Keep it consistent

Pick a time that fits your day, such as after the morning walk in the park, and stick with it. One dose a day. Do not double up if you miss a day. Just carry on the next day.

If your dog refuses

stay calm and do not force it
try a smaller bowl of a favourite food
try a different time of day
make it a calm, positive routine with a little praise

If refusal continues, or your dog seems off, stop and talk to your vet.

Storage

Follow the storage instructions printed on the label. Keep the bottle away from children and pets, and do not use it past the date shown.

Keep an eye on your dog

Watch the first days for vomiting, loose stools, itching or anything unusual. If you see any of it, stop and call your vet. More in is it safe.

A quick routine

Weigh, work out the dose, draw it up, give it, rinse the syringe. Done in a minute. Writing the dose on a note near the bottle saves doing the sum each time, until your dog’s weight changes.

Questions people ask

How much do I give?

1.7 ml per 10 kg of body weight per day. Weigh your dog, divide by ten, multiply by 1.7. The dose finder on the site does the sum for you. Do not give extra to try to get more from it.

Can I mix it with food?

Yes, many owners stir it into a small portion of the usual meal. Use a small portion so your dog finishes all of it. If some is left in the bowl, the dose was not fully given.

What if my dog refuses it?

Do not force it. Try a smaller portion of a favourite food, a different time of day, or a slower approach. If your dog keeps refusing, or seems unwell, stop and ask your vet.

How should I store it?

Follow the storage instructions on the label. They are written for this exact product. If you are unsure, check the label before guessing, and keep the bottle out of reach of children and pets.
