My homeopathic vet just recommended 2 T Aloe Vera (Georges) for a 17 pound dog with vomiting, upset stomach. Hope this helps others.

I agree. This is right up there with garlic being toxic to dogs. IT'S NOT! You would have to feed a whole lot of garlic for toxicity. I've been giving aloe vera to my dogs for years! It's incredibly helpful for the gut and I give a lot more than what people here give.

The preservative "sodium benzoate" is toxic to cats, not dogs. Sodium Benzoate is in some brands of aloe vera juice. It is NOT dangerous to pets (IMHO). I have been giving it to my dogs and cats for many many years and have never had an issue with it. It had always been a benefit, and my pets tend to live very long healthy lives!

Warning

Please do NOT give Aloe vera to any pets! It's well known to be toxic to both cats and dogs.

I too give it to my senior cat, George. I buy the reverse osmosis aloe vera juice with the same manufacturer name as my senior cat. I found it in the health food store, but the big online retailer (named after a river in South America) has it cheaper.

My dog Kodi (10 years-old) has had a sensitive stomach and she even has an allergy to gluten so I buy her special dog food without gluten in it. What she has from time to time is stomach gurgles and reflux vomiting. I give her aloe vera juice, which I take also for my digestion problems. I give her 1/4 cup of juice per day until she is better, that is when there is no more hint of stomach gurgles. I have been trying to give it to her on a regular basis, but she does not always want it so I don't force her.
