Holding your dog's head still with one hand, insert the tip of the dropper or syringe into a corner of the mouth, between the cheek and the teeth, aiming toward the back of your dog's head. Do not tilt your dog's head back; this may cause him or her to inhale the medicine. Squeeze the dropper or syringe to empty it.
