Vet told us that older larger dogs (labs, etc.) can handle one 200 mg tablet of ibuprofen daily and small dogs (yorkie,dashund,etc) should be given 5 mg to 10 mg children's liquid ibuprofen. Has worked for us over the years's

dosage info
My understanding is that dosage is key. 200mg sounds about right for a large dog, read something like 4-5mg/pound. Supposedly the worse pain med you can give a dog b/c it can easily be given in overdose quantity. BUT that could also be pharma companies wanting you to buy the specially formulated canine versions of pain meds for pets...
