Can I give my dog over the counter medicine?

What kind of medicine are you talking about?

I know that when I house-sit and take care of three dogs for some friends of mine, one of the things that I have to do is give is a very low dosage Aspirin to one of the dogs when they have a meal. But, the amount of aspirin and how often to be given, is determined by a verterinarian.

Some yes, but the modern pain killers kill dogs. Best stick to what the vet says. In some cases, they say use a particular medicine and give you the proper dose. It is very risky without guidance.
