The liquid has basically just come down to be squirting it in between his teeth because his jaw just locks...lol
Next question.....how long before they can go to the groomer (how old)....and does anyone have any suggestions in Staten Island or NYC area...are the vets usually good with stuff like that or a Petsmart? The vet says he has some little hairs in his ears and I can't bring myself to hurt him by plucking them out Thanks again for any help!!!
I have never had to give Dudley meds in pill form, but some really good suggestions on the board.I Have, however had to give him lots of different liquid meds. At forst it was a struggle & then I decided to treat him like it was a trick. He has not been any troble since. I treat him for brushing his teeth, mouthwash, anything that he doesn't like. I use little liver training bits.I hope it works for you too.
