How Much Apple Cider Vinegar To Give Your Dog or Cat

These are daily amounts in total, but if using with meals, I'd split the total amount between the meals since that's what humans do:

Dietary Supplement

ACV can be used topically and as a dietary supplement. As a dietary supplement ACV can be added directly to your dog’s and cat's fresh drinking water or to one of your dog’s daily meals. I add ACV directly to my dogs’ food once a day.

Dosage (human dosage provided at the bottom of the article):

Small Dogs (and cats) up to 14 lbs - 1 tsp;

Medium Dogs (and cats) 15 lbs to 34 lbs - 2 tsp;

Large Dogs:

35 lbs to 84 lbs - 1 tbs;

85 lbs to 134 lbs - 1.5 tbsp;

135 lbs to 200 lbs – 2 tbsp.

I was reading over the MANY reasons that ACV (with mother) is good for cats and dogs.  Really can't put a snip here... toooooo much good info!  Definitely a MUST read.

I've found that it's cheaper to order Bragg's from Vitacost than it is to buy it in town:

I've quit trying any other brands though. That one tastes better than others--if it's possible to believe that any of it could taste better than another. But it does.

Braggs is the brand I buy for the pets.  No complaints so far.  :)

Just wanted to share... (short version)

A dog that gulps her food.  She is fed canned, from one of those "stop gulping" kind of bowls.  She also drinks a lot of water, after meals. She eat's grass quite often.  Spits up water quite often.  I believe she has done all the above for all (or most of) her life.  She's been to the vet. 
Braggs Organic Vinegar with mother... stopped the spitting up completely.
