I give mine 1.5 tsp (from an eye dropper/suction bulb) for every 5lbs. given every 6 hrs.
This is the MAXIMUM dose that dogs should ever have. I've read to start at 1/2 tsp and go from there, but my vet has never ever had us use it. We've always been instructed to give Pepcid for upset stomachs its a much safer medication.

I wouldn't give anything without speaking to your veterinarian.
