You DON'T give your animal any human medication not prescribed by a vet it could kill them.
AnswerI agree wholeheartedly with the above answer, but there are cases in which your vet may PRESCRIBE a low dose of aspirin for your dog. Certain dosages are toxic to dogs. So you must get a vet's advice and not try to decide for yourself what dosage is safe for your dog. AnswerMost vets would recommend 5mg to 10mg per pound of the dog's weight, or about 10-20mg per kg weight.However dogs taking aspirin for chronic pain relief must have a physical examination, and blood and urine testing done every 2 to 3 months to monitor for side effects.
No - dogs are very sensitive to the side effects and even one pill can be enough to cause a fatal stomach ulcer. Other human pain medications (Tylenol, Advil, Aleve, Motrin, ibuprofen, acetominophen, etc.) have the same problem and also should not be given.
If you believe your dog would benefit from pain medication to manage his Arthritis, make an appointment with your veterinarian. There are safe medications for this, but they are only available with a veterinarian's prescription.

Be very careful with aspirin - it can be toxic to dogs. Never give it to a cat.It can be toxic if given in high doses of about 30 mg (milligram) per pound of the dog. This means that even a baby aspirin could be poisonous for dogs weighing two pounds or less. An adult aspirin, which is 320 mg, would be toxic for a 10-pound dog. So even 1/2 an aspirin to too much for a 5-lb dog. and they'll live without it - don't do it.
Baby aspiring can be given to dogs every 8 to 12 hours. Do not give your dog baby aspirin without consulting your veterinarian.
You can give a dog Buffered Aspirin 5-12.5 mg per pound, every 12 hours for pain, inflammation, and fever. Usually one regular strength tablet (325mg) for a 50-60 pound dog.
No - dogs should never be given human pain medications (Tylenol, aspirin, Advil, Aleve, Motrin, ibuprofen, etc.). Dogs are very sensitive to the side effects, which can be fatal. If you believe your dog would benefit from pain medication, you will need to make an appointment with your veterinarian for an examination. There are safe pain medications available for dogs, but you need a veterinary prescription to get them.
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.
Yes, but check with your veterinarian first to determine how much to give, or if aspirin is appropriate. Do not give your dog aspirin meant for humans. Specially prepared aspirin for dogs is available in pet stores. Coated aspirin may be acceptable, but check with your vet first. Your vet may also be able to prescribe other painkillers that are more effective for dogs. Do not give aspirin to your dog if it is taking any sort of n-said medication. See your vet for details.
