All drugs have the potential of side effects so there is always a risk for something to happen. If used appropriately, the risk is usually minimal. I have never used Etozox for a dog so I am not sure of the risk of side effects. If your vet prescribed the medications than you could use it as prescribed, otherwise do not give it to your dog. There are plenty of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications that are specifically made for dogs (Previcox, Deramaxx, Rimadyl) so you could ask your vet to prescribe something that is commonly used in dogs.
