My puppy had parvo and now is back home but still vomiting. She has to take an antibiotic pill twice a day but when we give her the pill she throws up when we stick our hand in her mouth, thus ruining the pill. Are there any tricks to get the pill in her without doing this? Thanks

Crush the pill up. Take a plastic syringe and put water in it as well as the pill dust and gently squeeze into the back of her mouth. There will be no pill to throw up and even if she does vomit, at least some of the medication will stay in her stomach.

take a small 1 inch piece of hotdog and put the pill in it

Put a glob of peanut butter on it and let the puppy eat it that way.
