@Big Mac,

Because each type of dog reacts to medications differently, just as humans do, I think it would ultimately be best to contact your local veterinary office regarding this inquiry.

From what I've read myself, I honestly wouldn't recommend it for a dog. If a dog were to ingest a human dose of this medication it could possibly be fatal. Diclofenac can also cause more damage in dogs than in humans with regards to the severity of side effects.

I know it must hurt to see your dog in pain, but it sounds like it's definitely worth making sure he gets the right kind of treatment, just to be safe.

Hope this helps!
