Sickness is definitely a painful thing for a living creature, whether it is us humans or dogs and cats. Especially when dogs are sick, it is very distressing for their owners. Because the dog will definitely refuse to cooperate when giving medicine to the dog, which makes the owner very worried. The editor below will tell you some better methods of feeding medicine.

1. Crush the medicine and feed it to the dog. For pill-type medicines, it is recommended that owners mash the pills into powder, and then add it to dog food or goat milk, or even snacks to feed the dog. For greedy dogs, this method is absolutely tried and true, and it is also very practical for puppies.

2. Open the mouth and stuff it directly into it to temporarily trick the dog to come to you. Then when they open their mouth, please insert the prepared pills immediately, then pinch the dog's mouth and wait until they make a swallowing movement before releasing.

3. Use a syringe to feed liquid medicine. Sometimes the medicine for dogs may be liquid. Then, the owner can prepare some syringes in advance, first draw the medicine into the syringe, and then slowly inject it through the dog's teeth. You can also open the dog's mouth and inject directly into their throat, but be careful not to go too fast to avoid choking the dog.
