Re: .:: How to give medication to a dog.. ::.
Actually giving medication to a dog is relatively simple. Provided that you have some guts to shove it down your Rottie's throat. Hehehe...
Anyway, here's how to do it
1)place your pill between your index and middle finger (needs some skill and practice to get it right)
2)with another hand, press the cheek of your dog (near the mouth's end) and your dog will automatically open it's mouth
3)place your pill as far in as possible
4)then quickly close it's mouth with your hands and quickly blow into it's nose.
5)All done, it will gulp the medicine in without any problem. Repeat step 1 to 4 if you have the additional pills to feed (and have some extra guts too!).
See, wasan't that easy? As for cats, I really have no idea on how to do it.
