| first aid kit I know I should have done this a long time ago, but the lack of money has stopped me. I'm going to create my own doggie first aid kit. Besides nutri cal, what would you put in a first aid kit for dogs for injuries and illness?

| You can give baby asprin if your dog is in pain. You can give pepto for an upset stomach. Rescue remedy is good for car sickness

| I'm always paranoid about giving human meds. Do you know the doseages to give for the pepto, benadryl, and baby asprin? Chip is 8 lbs and Smokey is 14 lbs.
