Question
My 3 year old pomeranian is snipping at me when I try to  touch his back leg. This has happened in the past, after 2 days it was ok. I want to give him Tylenol, how much do I give him? He weighs about 8 pounds.
Thanks
Tresa

Answer
Tresa, PLEASE NO Tylenol for dogs..... NEVER....OK
I am thinking that one 81 mg baby aspirin will be fine a few times... Most VETS will allow a baby aspirin dosage.
**** YOU may want to call your local vet about the proper dosage.  
( 81 mg may be a little too much for an 8 lb POM>>>>)

Good luck to you two...
