Is 100 mg of Trazodone too much for a 20 lb puppy? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | unspayed | 4 months and 9 days old | 20 lbs

Hi there and thank you for using Pet Coach. The dose for a 20lb puppy would be approximately 25mg every 12 hours with a max dose of 50mg. 100mg would be too high of a dose but would likely not cause significant problems. A dog with too high of a dose of Trazodone may exhibit sedation, lethargy and incoordination when walking. I hope this helps answer your question. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. I am also available via consultation if needed.
