no. its very toxic to dogs.

ibuprofen can be toxic if not dosed properly. It also should not be used in place of vet evaluation.

The usual dose in dogs is 2.5 to 4 mg per pound (5 to 8 mg/kg) every 12 hours.

You can also give your dog aspirin. (enteric coated should not be used because it will not be digested.

A typical aspirin dose is 5 to 10 mg per pound (10 to 20 mg/kg) twice daily for dogs, and 5 mg per pound (10 mg/kg) once every other day for cats.

Dosage info from PetPlace
no do not give Tylenol or ibprofen to dogs
