Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

I see a lot of people posting asking what they can give their dog, and how much and so I stumbled upon this the other day and thought this is a great chart to print out and hold on to for those accidents.

Thanks for posting. I knew about a few of them. My mom's 17 yr old cat was really sick the other day, vomiting and diarrhea. She wanted to give her pepto, and I didn't think it was a good idea, glad to see I was right.

Oh my gosh thank you for posting this! I always wonder what I can and cannot give my dogs and how much to give.

Great post!

Thanks for this! I give Roxy Pepto from time to time because she has such a sensitive stomach. She HATES it but it always helps.

Benadryl will have the same side effects on dogs as humans right? As in feeling drowsy?

Yep. I had to give my sibe Benadryl when he swelled from a bee sting. He staggered around like he was drunk as a result.

Interesting thanks, Our emergency vet had told us peroxide was 1 tbsp per 10 pounds if that helps anyone.

That's what I've heard too Kelly.

My vet also said you can repeat that every 15 minutes, up to 3 times.

If peroxide doesn't work a table spoon of salt will work almost instantly.
