Pet's info: Dog | Rottweiler | Female | 75 lbs
How much milk thistle can I give her a day? She weights approximately 70-75 lbs. I've read every 25 lbs they can have 50 mg. I've also read she can have that two times a day. Is this true?

The recommended dose for this supplement is 2mg/lb. Always check with your veterinarian or certified veterinary homeopath before giving a new supplement to your dog. Milk thistle should not be given to healthy dogs as a daily supplement. Caution should also be exercised when the source and strength of the supplement is unknown. Your vet may have a preferred (and verified) source or vendor.
