I would never give either of my dogs Tylenol. I really am not sure if you can give it to you pup or not. I know that too much would be horrible for her and I know that it doesn't take alot to give her too much. Dogs can't handle alot of the stuff that humans can. I would really suggest that you take her to the vet and see if they can give her something to make her more comfortable.. Or atleast call the vet and see if they have any suggestions for you. Again, I am really not sure if dogs can take tylenol (though I am sure they can't) so I don't want to tell you yes and like I said, I know that too much would hurt her and I have no idea how many would be too many. I hope she is feeling better soon! Good luck! : )

The only pain killers my vet has ever allowed me to give my dogs are baby aspirin, rimadyl and tolfedine (the last two are especially made for dogs). As far as i know tylenol is dangerous for dogs. Your vet should also check to see what's wrong with your dog and how much pain killer to give her depending on the kind of pain killer and dog's weight.

ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!! Tylenol is toxic to dogs!!! Do NOT give Ibuprophen either that is also toxic.
Asprin is sometimes safe for dogs but NOT without authorization from your vet and given in the proper dosage.

u can't give a dog Tylenol because that we'll probably make them more sick then they were so go 2 the vet and ask them what medicine u should give your dog for whatever is wrong with her or him because your post 2 give your dog only dog medicine.

No!!! Dogs absolutely can not have Tylenol. If its an emergency, she can have a buffered aspirin, but the cause of her pain needs to be treated.

Dogs can't have Tylenol. They can have a baby aspirin though. What are you treating her for?

NO ! If your dog needs painkillers, take it to a vet to get somethng suitable. A lot of human medication is toxic to animals.
