No, you should not give slippery elm bark (or any other human medication, supplement or herbal remedy) to your dog. In this particular instance, slippery elm bark is known to decrease the absorption of prescription medications (such as HeartGard or other heartworm preventatives). Also, many herbal remedies are only loosely regulated by the FDA in the United States and there are no tests for safety or efficacy before a supplement is marketed. There is no way to know what side effects your dog may experience from this, and the side effects in humans are often different from the side effects in animals.
