Paracetamol is the trade name for acetominophen, which should not be used in canines. Dogs are very sensitive to the side effects of human pain medications and you can cause a fatal stomach ulcer with these drugs.
If you believe your dog would benefit from pain medication, you should make an appointment with your veterinarian. There are safe pain medications for dogs, but you will need a veterinary prescription to get them.

∙ 10y agoThis depends upon the size of the dog, the dog's overall health status, the absorption rate of the paracetamol and the dog's genetics. In some cases, a single human dose pill or tablet is sufficient; in other cases, it takes half a bottle.
However, I will caution that paracetamol is not a quick or certain death; it should not be used for euthanasia purposes.

∙ 13y agoDO NOT give your dog paracetamol, as it is known to be highly toxic to dogs.
You can give aspirin, as a painkiller/A.I.D./fever reducer. This can be given at a dose of 5mg per pound twice daily on a full stomach for no more than two days.
You can also give Diphenhydramine or Chlorpheniramine to help with a runny nose, etc. Diphenhydramine (Benadryl) can be given at a dose of 1mg per pound twice daily. The Chlorpheniramine can be given at a dose of 4mg twice daily.

Why does your springer spaniel eat?
Springer Spaniels will pretty much eat whatever you give them. That is different from the question - What should you be feeding your Springer Spaniel. I personally go for a hypoallergenic diet for my George; it reduces their affectations from allergies and is probably better for them. there is more info here : 1

What age should you breed a springer spaniel?
Hi, I have an English Springer Spaniel and honestly when your able to bring him home you should start walking him. You need to teach him/her to walk on a leash at a young age. Try little and often when they are under six months old (too much walking can damage their developing bones) so make sure they get plenty of rest in between. Try to also involve obedience training on each walk. Check out the springer spaniel exercise link attached below for exercise ideas at different ages

How big does a springer spaniel grow?
Well I'm not a dog expert but I know that the size of an English Springer Spaniel can vary a lot. My English Springer is very small and skinny. He's 17 months old so he won't grow much more.My Uncle's English Springers are completely different. One I would say is about average, he's not too fat not too thin and very tall. The other one of my Uncle's Springers is just like a barrel and quite short.So basicly I would say there is no straight forward answer to your question I'm afraid but I hope I've helped.I have a English springer spaniel cross and he is abouthe is about 47cm from foot to shoulder and near his waist/skinniest bit just over 60cm
