Aspirin is an acid - aceetylsalicylic acid. The continuous or excessive consumption of aspirin (an acid) can be harmful to why it is good that a buffer compound is added.
MgO is the buffering agent in Bufferin
Buffered aspirin has an added buffering agent so that it is easier on the stomach.
When a naturalyl acidic or basic substance is buffered, it's pH is balanced. If something is too acidic or basic is ingested, it can do serious harm to the stomach lining.
Aspirin companies use compounds like magnesium hydroxide, magnesium carbonate, and aluminum glycinate as bufferin to reduce the irritation of the salicyclic acid thats in aspirin.
HEPES is a type of zwitterionic organic chemical buffering agent. It is able to dissociate and its dissociation decreases as the temperature decreases.

The term is BUFFERED aspirin. Aspirin is an acid, and can cause stomach upset. Adding another substance to aspirin (a buffering material) can help counter the acid of the aspirin- and no tricky tummy.
If it is buffered it will say on the label. Bayer makes a Low dose safety coated Aspirin that is buffered. (81mg) It has an enteric coating. The enteric safety coating is designed to allow the aspirin to pass through the stomach to the small intestine before dissolving.
Salicylic Acid (aspirin) is pretty hard on the stomach when not buffered. Buffering it with a coating helps the stomach tolerate it better, and helps to prevent damage to the stomach lining for those who have sensitive stomachs, ulcers, or similar problems.
No - Bufferin is buffered aspirin and can be fatal to dogs.

How much you give of either buffered adult aspirin or baby aspirins depends on the weight of your dog: A dog that weighs 8 lbs, would get 1/2 baby aspirin or less. A dog weighing 16 lbs, would get 1 baby aspirin. A dog weighing 32 lbs, would get 1/2 buffered adult aspirin or 2 baby aspirins. A dog weighing 48 lbs, would get 3/4 buffered adult aspirin or 3 baby aspirins. A dog weighing 64 lbs, would get 1 buffered adult aspirin or 4 baby aspirins. A dog weighing 80 lbs, would get 1 1/4 buffered adult aspirin or 5 baby aspirins. A dog weighing 96 lbs, would get 1 1/2 buffered adult aspirin or 6 baby aspirins. Aspirin can cause gastrointestinal upsets and ulcers in dogs, just as in humans. You should pay attention to your dog's eating habits when you have been giving it aspirin to watch for signs of an upset stomach (such as not wanting to eat, or vomiting) and stop giving the aspirin. To minimize stomach problems, always give food with the aspirin.

No, aspirin (even buffered aspirin) is very dangerous to dogs. Even a single pill can be enough to cause a fatal stomach ulcer.
