Giving your dog a pill can be tricky. Whether it’s a one time dose or
given on a routine basis, your dog may not be so accepting to take a
pill. Here are a few ways to help. First, ask your vet for a chewable
form of your pill. This is often a better solution if your dog doesn’t
like to swallow pills. You can also try putting the pill in your dog’s
food. Chewable or not, he may just eat it right up with his dog food. If
he doesn’t, try hiding the pill in a pill pocket dog treat or wrap it
in a piece of cheese or bread. If you still have problems, then you may
need to make your dog swallow it. You can do this by placing the pill at
the back of your dog’s tongue and gently close his mouth until he
swallows. For additional assistance and directions, please talk with
your animal hospital Burlington, ON.
