I would definitely not give a dog Ibuprofen. It may kill the dog unless you give him more than a little.

It is very toxic to the kidneys. Use regular buffered aspirin instead. Best thing to do is to take your pet to your Veterinarian to be checked out.

No! Ibuprofen is not recommended for dogs.

Buffered aspirin, in very small doses, is best if the dog is a little sore for some reason.

See the related links for details and for dosage information.

If your dog is in a lot of pain or long-term pain, absolutely contact your veterinarian; there are prescription meds that are probably safer than aspirin long-term and more effective than aspirin for the short-term.
