Pet's info: Dog | Labrador Retriever | Male | unneutered | 70 lbs
I have an 80 lbs. Labrador. My question is Can I give him Cephalexin 500 mg. If it’s human medication? He has an ear infection. If so would I give it to him 3 times a day?

I would not recommend doing that purely because most ear infections are fungal rather than bacterial and are treated topically and not systematically. you should take Gunner to the vet in order to get an anti fungal prescription ear drops.
