Use cottage cheese for that...take a ball of cottage cheese, freshly made at home, insert the tablet and give it to him

If it's above 10 kg u can prefer a tablet. But if under 10 then go for syrup.

Abhay U can give the tablet directly if it's not liking it then hold its mouth open with one of your hand and hold a tablet with two fingers in scissor position. Release the tablet deep (not so deep) and shut its mouth wait to see if it licks you can see it's tongue out if it does so the pup has gulped the tablet. Note: prefer to give the tablet in morning hours so it will be under observation.

Hold her head vertically and put the tablet inher mouth hold her head until she swallow her tablet. I do it everytime i give tablet to all my 8 dogs. It work best for me. But be aware some of them are very clever they will act like as if they swallowed it but will spit it out after u release them.
