I was recently explaining to some people that I never take the chance of hiding a pill in the food. It is too risky that they will not get the dosage. Be strong and just get a good grip on the scruff of Luna's neck, pull her head back, have the pill in your other hand already, put your pinkie on the side of her mouth and wiggle it between the teeth until she opens, but the pill WAY back on the tongue as far as you can and then let her close her mouth. Make sure she doesn't let her tongue spit it out. DONE. Sterling and Jim were both giving me more trouble than I expected, but are accepting this method so it is becomeing less time consuming. Of course, Jim wants to try to push my hand away with his front feet, so I tuck them under my arm. Not too comfortable, but it is only for a few seconds. Just remember, grab a lot of skin, tilt the head nice and far and don't give up, it is VERY important for them to have the medicine.
