Administering a one-time dose of 175 mg to a 13 lb dog may not be safe without knowing the specific medication and its recommended dosage for dogs. Dosing can vary significantly depending on the drug, the dog's health status, and other factors. It's crucial to consult a veterinarian before giving any medication to ensure it is appropriate and safe for your pet.
It is not safe to give your dog a higher dose of Heartgard without consulting a veterinarian first. Overdosing can be harmful to your dog's health.
It is not safe to give your dog a lower dose of Heartgard without consulting a veterinarian first. The recommended dosage is based on your dog's weight and giving a lower dose could potentially be harmful to your pet.
If you need to give your dog any type home remedy pain med, it's better to give them, a LOW DOSE ASPIRIN such as BABY ASPIRIN. NOT MOTRIN.
My dog has allergies and the vet told me to give her a childrens dose but I would imagine it would depend upon the weight of the dog.
Consult your vet. It can be used for separation anxiety and such, but the wrong dose will harm your dog.
it is an overdose, it can give your dog an infection internaly, dont do it
No, there are absolutly NO human medications that you can give to your dog, mainly because the dosing is so different, a low dose could be enough to kill your pet
Absolutely not. Ambien can kill a dog, and a small dog can be killed more quickly by it. Never give an animal a medicine meant for a human unless you have a prescription from a veterinarian specifically for that animal. You can give a dog BABY Benadryl, the liquid kind might work best. But remember that the dose must be MUCH lower for a dog than for a human, even an infant if the dog is a small dog. It is best to ask a veterinarian what exact dose to give the dog.
A dog should be give only regular strength Benadryl. For a small dog, it' probably easier to give it the liquid children's formula. The standard dose is one milligram for every pound given twice daily. So for your 14 pound dog, give 12-14 milligrams, twice a day. (If the lesser dose works, all the better!)
Every time you breathe.
You shouldn't give cyclobenzaprine to a dog, even if you neighbors' dog won't shut up. But...if you're going to anyway, then no more then 1mg to 10lbs to avoid toxicity and cardiac complications.
Open dogs mouth wide and inject with a syringe.
