milk

How bad is milk for dogs.. Charlie is on a medication..a liquid.. that he refuses to take..tried it with peanut butter..soft dog food, stew and his fav  peanut butter cookies...nothing.

I mixed it in with about 1/4 cup of milk and he drank it all..

Don't really know

But I believe too much will give them a stomach ache and possibly diarhea. You could also try mixing the meds with low sodium chicken broth or something similar. Good luck!

How much medication does he need to take?  I would suggest you get a syringe (without needle). You can dispense into the back of the inside of his cheek very quickly and all will be swallowed, so he gets the correct dosing.  Good luck.
