Your question is phrased in such a way that it may not be possible to answer it. You have mentioned 0.15 but given it no units. Are you saying that he needs 0.15 pounds of weight per milligram of medicine? If you don't make the question clear you may get a wrong answer and the animal dies. Think about it before you click Save. I wouldn't want you for a doctor.
