Hello, and thanks for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. There is limited data on turmeric doses in dogs, but it is generally pretty well tolerated. Some dogs are more sensitive to it than others, and can get mild GI upset. However, most likely your dog will be just fine. Let your vet know if you see any vomiting, diarrhea, or decreased appetite. Hope this helps!
