Re: [RC] OT -- Question On Giving Dog Oral Medication - Betsy O'SheaJust put the pills down the dogs throat. I have the dog sit in front of me and hold on to the collar with my left 3 fingers. the thumb and index finger of the left hand are used to open the dog's mouth. The right hand thumb and index finger hold the pill and the other 3 fingers keep the mouth open as you put the pill down the dogs throat. you put the pill way in the back of the mouth and partially down the throat. . Do this quickly and matter of fact. No need to hide pills in food. Dogs do not develop an aversion to this technique and it works every time. Now cats are another matter!!! =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
