He may fight & squirm but just hold him firmly & insert the syringe/dropper/spoon in the side of his lips and press or tilt fast. I've given an awful lot of water & Pedialyte to fighting, squirming, determined dogs - some of them quite tiny & some quite large. It can keep them alive so you have to do it sometimes, especially if you don't live near a vet.
Yes, his diarrhea has cleared up already and after one day of plain cooked rice, he's back to eating his kibbles now.

Thank you for your advice. Will sure to keep him hydrated!
