Low dose aspirin?

Question

hello,

i feel bad for my 9 yr (110 lb) old dog. she can't barely walk and sore getting out of bed. can i give her low dose aspirin? will the low dose ones help with the pain or do i need to administer regular strength for her pain?

Answer 1

I think BABY asprin is o.k....but call a vet. Some pain killers can kill dogs.

Answer 2

Go to a drug store like walgreens and you can buy over the counter medicine called, Ascripten. Give her one every 6-8 hrs,

Answer 3

I heard aspirin is toxic to dogs. Call a vet.

Answer 4

There are new drugs for joint pain in dogs.  They work really well.  I have a 15 yr old dog with hip problems and they have kept us from having to put him down over a year ago.

Answer 5

Take a VERY small dose if you dun wanna kill him. They die pretty fast
