Streptococcus in the news. Streptococcus suis, a species of Streptococci found in pigs, has recently caused a rash of human infections in China.

Giving your dog iron supplement pills, made for human consumption, isnât the way to go. We give our youngest dog this canine-formulated iron supplement after it was confirmed that she was mildly deficient. Weâve since improved her diet.

Proper Piriton Dosage. Under a vetâs supervision, you can give your dog Piriton if theyâre suffering from a skin allergy, hay fever and even house dust mites. Typically, a half tablet a day for a small breed will be prescribed.lthough this allergy medicine is intended for people, lots of veterinarians prescribe it for canines with certain allergies. So yes, Piriton is generally safe for dogs but you really should consult with a vet for a proper diagnosis and for getting the dose right.
