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 - dogs are very sensitive to the side effects of aspirin (and all other human pain medications like Tylenol, Advil, Aleve, Motrin, etc) and you can cause a serious medical reaction or even kill your dog with aspirin. If you think your dog would benefit from some pain medication, you will need to talk to your veterinarian about it - there are safe pain meds for dogs, but it takes a veterinary prescription to get them.
