Can I Give My Dog Trazodone?
Ask your vet first
Trazodone is used in dogs, but dosing decisions belong to your veterinarian. Prescription anti-anxiety medication often used for vet visits, fireworks, thunderstorms, and post-surgery rest. Amount and timing come from your vet. Sedation is expected; occasional dogs get agitated instead.

The safe habit
