As a pet owner, I often hear some ridicule about keeping pets. For example, there is a ridiculous story about the fact that when the shoveler wants to feed the dog medicine, the best way is to take out a piece of delicious toast bread and gradually approach the dog... and then eat the toast bread, and after filling in the energy, start to fight the dog with a strong battle.
I don't know that all the pet owners have seen this ridicule. Do you think of their miserable personal experience when feeding medicine to their dogs? In short, I think this ridicule is very appropriate, and feeding medicine to dogs is indeed a hard thing. If many people are watching, those who understand say they are feeding medicine to their dogs, those who don’t know also think what World Fighting Open is playing between the poop shovelers and dogs.
But perhaps it is even more difficult, which has caused many shovelers to think about the matter of feeding dogs with medicine. Feeding dogs with medicine must be a whole process that takes a lot of effort. Some shovelers even say that the prerequisite for feeding medicine to a dog is to work and subdue the dog first. It is necessary to use some tough measures to make the baby take the medicine properly.
For this type of people, I just want to ask: "As people were young, they didn't want to take medicine. Did their parents use violent means to get it immediately?" Perhaps many people would argue that dogs are different from people. Although we used to be domineering, we were always afraid that they would be much smarter.
But everyone should figure it out that even if the dog is really ignorant, why do they swallow the drug and baby obediently due to people’s forced? In fact, most examples tell people that even if they use explosive force to force their dogs to take medicine, the final result will usually fail, and it will eventually hurt the shoveler himself.
Therefore, when feeding medicine to a dog, you can only be smart and not ask for extravagant. All this depends on the mind, not on force.
What exactly is the appropriate method of feeding medicine?
1. Types of medicines
Just to put it bluntly, know your opponent and be close to your own battles. If you want to carry out proper breeding, the first step for the shoveler is to master the types of medicines for your dog. Here people will develop a simple classification of the drug based on its appearance.
1. The solid drugs mentioned here are mostly some pills and tablets. It is also considered a common type of dog drugs. There is a characteristic here, that is, small!
This has always caused me a headache for many poop shovelers. Because the pills are very small, it is still not easy to hold them in your hands, let alone feeding them accurately into your dog's mouth. Sometimes, when the dog turns his head or moves his tongue, he will spit out the pills.

Liquid drugs generally refer to some medicines, which are rare compared to solid drugs. But among some unique symptoms, the shoveler still has a headache.
The problem of feeding liquid drugs is the same as feeding solid drugs, which is how to use the shoveler to invest the drugs accurately into the dog's mouth and let it swallow it into its stomach. However, there is a trick to feed liquid medicines that greatly reduce its feeding difficulty coefficient.

Paste-like medicine, to put it bluntly, refers to whitening toothpaste-like medicine. This type of medicine seems to be more difficult to put into the dog's mouth, but I want to tell all the poop shovelers that its feeding difficulty coefficient is much lower than the first two drugs.

2. Methods of feeding medicines
often separate three types of drugs according to the same situation. That is to say, since people's feeding methods are related to the appearance of the drugs, I will first introduce the feeding methods of solid drugs in detail to you.
1. Hand feeding method
The first thing the poop shoveler wants to send the dog to a narrow indoor space is to prevent the dog from escaping around while feeding medicine.
Then, the shoveler can gradually control the dog, and during this period, he has to caress and talk to it.
When the dog's mentality recovers, the shoveler gradually stretches out the dog's upper jaw and makes its nose face upwards. In that position, the dog's lips will slightly open.
When the dog's lips appear slightly open, the shoveler can slide his hand to the dog's canine teeth, so that the dog's slightly opened lips will grow bigger, and there is always an opportunity to take advantage of it.
At that time, the shoveler could quickly put the pills into the dog's lips with his other hand, and the closer this part is, the higher the tongue.
When the pill is put in, the shoveler should quickly cover the dog's lips and then gently stroke its throat. Under such mild stimulation, the dog's throat will be swallowed and then swallow the medicine.
This means the detailed process of hand-feeding solid medicine. The important thing about the whole process is to go from shallow to deep, preventing irritation to the dog, and allowing the dog to swallow the medicine under the feeling of "the dog is frog effect".
2. Injection method
The injection method mentioned here is a professional method used to feed liquid drugs.
The first thing the shoveler should do is prepare a neat injection needle in advance to remove the needle.
Then the medicine the shoveler is about to feed is then drawn into the injection needle. When extracting the medicine, you must strictly control the amount of the medicine.
Finally, the shoveler holds the dog's brain and tilts upward at a 45 angle. There is a gap between its canine teeth and grooves. The shoveler should probe the injection needle according to this gap. The syringe should be positioned at the upper palate and the tip of the tongue, and then inject the potion.
This whole process also stipulates that the shoveler is skillful in the skills. The injection rate should not be too slow or too fast. Too slow will prompt the automatic transmission to increase throughout the process of feeding medicine. If it is too fast, it will choke the dog..
However, compared with hand feeding methods, injection methods are safer and easier to get started, so the difficulty coefficient of feeding liquid drugs will be slightly lower than that of solid drugs.
3. Attractive licking method
Attractive licking rule is the way to feed cream-like drugs. If the shoveler wants to feed cream-like drugs, then the medicine can be applied to the dog's nose. Because dogs have the habit of licking their noses, when they feel objects on their noses, they will involuntarily poke out their tongues and lick them into their stomachs.
This method is simple and difficult to learn, and it saves effort and is very much reduced. However, this method has two shortcomings. One is that it only applies paste-like drugs, and the other is that you should not apply too much when feeding the medicine, otherwise you will be rubbed by the dog.
4. Food method
The fourth method is to use all kinds of medicines, and the shoveler can stuff the medicine into toast bread and pork. At first, feed the dog some normal ingredients, and then raise the dog with toast and pork stained with medicine.
This method is indeed difficult to save money, but there is one thing that must be paid attention to by the shoveler, that is, when feeding the dog, you must select the relative ingredients according to its body shape. Otherwise, if you can't feed the medicine and choke, it would be bad.
3. What should you pay attention to when feeding medicine?
The four methods of feeding medicine are different. To put it bluntly, the method is immediately reasonable and can ensure that it is not extravagant or wasteful at all. However, the skills of feeding medicine are quite high, and the shoveling owner must be careful when feeding medicine, and be careful of being bitten by the dog.
For methods such as food methods, although simple and difficult to learn, they will also be extravagant or wasteful. Therefore, when feeding medicine, the shoveler must pay attention to choosing the right way to suit his or her condition and never generalize it in a single way.
And when feeding medicine, on the one hand, the shoveler must maintain his own safety and avoid being attacked by dogs. On the other hand, the dog shoveler should also pay attention to the dog's experience. Never feed the medicine halfway, and new damage occurs.
As I often said before, feeding dogs with medicine is only a wise move, not a luxury. In fact, most of the extravagant poop shovelers are just lazy poop shovelers. They are even more lazy and unwilling to learn training, so they will force their dogs to do personal behavior. But since people want to wait for their dogs for the rest of their lives, of course they cannot use such violent means to force them. They can only be gentle and induce, which is the wonderful way to manage dogs.
