Quote greatdanedog:

My Great Dane is old (nine) and was born with hip dysplasia. She cries out in the middle of the night. She wants to get up and move but she can't. We have to help move her to make her feel comfortable. I give her Rimadyl. My understanding is that Rmadyl is just an antiinflammatory. I want to give her percocet for the pain to make her comfortable in her elder years? Is give in a dog percocet safe? Does it even help if given to a dog? How much do you give a 145 pound dog? Thanks text
Percoset can't be any more toxic than what your giving now which is Rimadyl. I agree you have to weigh the odds of medicaton to try and help you dog with the dyplasia. Vets push drugs. So I am not a good one to ask because I am one sided here. Since I do not believe in conventional drugs but only alternative methods I am not sure you would want to hear my suggestions. Rather than waste my time here e-mail back and let me know if you value my suggestions. Boswer
