My dog hates liquid seizure meds; how do I get her to take them?

Question

My dog is on liquid Seizure meds and hates them. The vet said the dose is to small for a pill form. How do I get my dog to take the liquid med? She also has very few teeth so chewing isn't an option unless it's a soft food and she's super picky. Thanks! Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 5 lbs

I think your best option here is to mix it in with a canned food that will mask the smell. Either that or get it compounded into a flavored liquid that she likes. Here are two compounding pharmacies that are relatively easy to use with a shipping rate of less than a week. www.wedgewoodpharmacy.com www.roadrunner.com Best of luck with your pet Lulu and I hope that you can get her to take her meds soon! Take care.
