Gabapentin is used frequently and safely in dogs. Please see the following article for dosing information (scroll down a little). https://www.petcoach.co/pet-medication/gabapentin/ If she isn't improving significantly in the next 2-3 days, please take her to your vet to have it evaluated. Additionally, if she starts to seem worse, or develops any other symptoms, take her in to your vet sooner.
