teething help needed!! How many mg of asprin can I give a 5.5 lb yorkie?? the tabs I have are 1 tab per 15 lbs, should I give half?? I want to give pepper something for her teething pain |
I personally wouldn't give anything for teething pain other then an ice cube or frozen carrot to chew on. |
so i guess oral gel is out also. thanks for helping I'll just keep her chewing on her rope toy. I tried carrots, which she usually loves but she just holds them in her mouth and then tries to hide them for later. |

I would use any medication either, but for future reference...somebody posted this a while back and I have it saved for emergency. Maybe it will be useful? http://dogs.thefuntimesguide.com/ima...-for-pets2.jpg |
Asprin is very hard on the stomach, that's why it's not recommended. I had a dog who was on it for over a year when her arthritis was severe and it really helped but that was only because the perscription stuff didn't work for her and it was the only thing left to try. Someimes they really do have ttething pain but try freezing a damp wash rag and giving it to her |
Thanks everyone for the help!! Pepper is acting ok now, other than the fact I just got our order from EmrldShdwQueen and she is in an outfit with pants!!! doesn't know what to think. I'm used to bigger dogs and am unsure of the doses for dogs 5 lbs and smaller. The link is great thanks!! it is saved on the comp and printed off for the bag |
