Do dogs get headaches?

I woke up with such a headache this morning and just couldn't get rid of it. Its from allergies and its the kind that sits right behind your eyes. And it made me wonder, does my dog ever get a headache like this? They get allergies so wonder if they ever get the sinus headache that sometimes comes along with allergies? Not like they can tell me Mom, I got a headache! :roll:

Good question!
I don't know if they can get headaches, but mine get hiccups!
I don't see why not. I remember Harry with his toothache, grumbing around here, giving me strange looks. Dogs have same head pain receptors and humans and surely suffer headaches after injuries.

I found this on the web:

Yes. Dogs get headaches. A dog may get a headache for lots of the same reasons we do including sinus problems and allergies, migraines, and head injuries.

My dog gets sinus headaches. I can tell because she scrunches up her eyes a certain way and she thrusts her head in to the palm of my hand, wanting her head, face and ears to be rubbed really hard.

The vet advised me to give her 1/2 of a Benadryl tablet when she gets that way. It always works.

They also sell homeopathic remedies for dog headaches in lots of pet stores and online.
Yes, they do get headaches. I can see it in their eyes. Asia has allergies and I can tell when it's in her sinus.
I've always wondered that about horses too. An equine massage therapist said "why wouldn't they get headaches? We do." Their heads have the same makeup as far as sinuses and arteries and nerves.
I know they can GIVE them!
Fred used to come and have his nose blown when he got a cole-people say dogs don't get colds-he did.x
I think they do. They listen to us uprights & we give them one
