No if it is labeled for cats, then it should only be used on cats b/c it has only been tested and deemed safe for cats. I would advise getting Advantix for your dog if you are looking for a good over the counter option here. Thanks for visiting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Take care: )
