No - this is very dangerous because dogs are very sensitive to the side effects of aspirin (and Tylenol, Advil, Aleve and other human pain medications). Even a single pill can be enough to cause a fatal stomach ulcer.

I was told by my veternarian, to give my 12 yr old Basset Hound a baby aspirn everyday. It thins his blood and helps with his arthsritis. I have never had stomach upset or bleeding problems from long term use, it does seem to help.

No - dogs are very sensitive to the side effects of aspirin and even one pill can be enough to cause a fatal stomach ulcer. This is also true for other over-the-counter human pain medications, including Tylenol, Advil, Aleve, Motrin, ibuprofen, acetominophen, etc.

If you believe your dog needs pain medication, take him/her to your veterinarian. There are safe daily pain medications available for your dog, but only through a veterinarian's prescription.

Is it OK to give your dog 0.4 ml of aspirin?

Yes, yes it is. How much aspirin a dog can have depends on it's size and weight! If you are doubt about how much aspirin to give your dog, call your vet's office and ask them. Regular strength buffered or baby aspirins should be used, not "safety coated" aspirin. Always give aspirin with food, to help avoid an upset stomach. If the dog starts to vomit, stop giving it aspirin. Aspirin has blood thinning properties, so it can be dangerous in some dogs. For long term pain relief there are safer veterinary-specific alternatives.

No, never give Tylenol or ibuprofen to your pet. They are dangerous to the dog. Only use a buffered regular aspirin. It must be buffered too or will cause ulcers or other stomach problems in the dog's stomach. Be sure to check with your Veterinarian as to why you are giving your dog aspirin or want to. The Vet has many pain relievers that are appropriate to what is causing the dog's pain. A good check up, if not already done, is in order with your Veterinarian. You also need to check with your Vet as to what dosage to give of the buffered aspirin.
