ivermectin ?

I would like to know if giving ivermectin to a dog right before you breed them if it would cause them not to have puppies.

it shouldn't prevent pregnancy/conception, and is probably fine.

here is a list of medications that are okay during dog pregnancy, and those to avoid:

There are some discussions that woud caution the use of ivermectin during pregnancy. Also some questions regarding the use of it year around in cold climates. Where I live, I don't use it when tempratures drop below freezing
