It is extremely dangerous to administer human medication to pets without the explicit guidance of a veterinarian.
Xanax (alprazolam) is a benzodiazepine used to treat anxiety in humans. In dogs, it can be very dangerous and potentially fatal.
Please contact your veterinarian immediately for advice on how to help your dog. They can assess your dog's specific needs and provide safe and appropriate treatment options.
Here are some factors that your veterinarian will consider:
* Your dog's weight and breed: The correct dosage of any medication depends on the size and breed of the dog.
* The severity of your dog's anxiety: Your veterinarian will need to understand the nature and severity of your dog's anxiety to determine the best course of treatment.
* Any pre-existing medical conditions: It's important to inform your veterinarian about any other health issues your dog may have.
Remember, it's always best to err on the side of caution and seek professional veterinary care. Your dog's health and safety are paramount.
