"squish the cat!"
I love it. And it works xD
If there is such a thing as an after-life, then I want to come back as a cat or dog, preferably in Vancouver, and have an owner that takes me to Dr. Burstyns practice. Everyone, (and everything) looks so chilled out over there. Just look at the blissful look on Cedrics face as he's getting loved to bits before his ''pill''.
So he can squish you right?
That moment at 1:38 when Cedric notices the treat made me smile :)
Thank you, Doctor.
Your videos are always appreciated for their clear information and caring presentation.
I prepare my dogs food infront of him and it gets him to have a big watery mouth and then I put it in the back of his mouth. He swallows easily from all the saliva and quickly because he wants me to put his dinner down lol.
I don’t even have a pet but I’m hooked on your videos 🇨🇦🇨🇦
Oh god... Me too...
This dog got a pill and a massage... 😍
sounds good. also I notice you have all your fingers still, so it must work.
So far so good...
These videos are calming and informative, and I love how caring this doctor is to those pets!
I love this video series so much ! Even though I only own a cat, I just find these videos very genuine and educational, which make them very easy to watch. Please doctor, keep making videos ! :]
Thanks so much! I've been using your videos to prep for a dog I'm getting (she's healthy, just want to be prepared), and to help take care of the cats at the cat shelter I volunteer at. Have a great weekend!
What a nice dog. Good job Doc.
Both Doctor and doggie are awesome! Love this channel. I love the kitties too!! Clawdia and Mr. Pirate! Look at this dog's face. Awwww thank you Doctor! We love you in the US!
Thank you your videos are always so helpful!!
You're amazing bless you and your cats and dogs
Cedric is a good boy!
Thank you Dr. Burstyn from Vancouver BC, I for one really enjoy your vidoes and I don't even have a pet : )
You are simply too adorable. This cat mom loves your videos-especially those on kitties-and my kitties (Mojo and Mackenzie) love watching your kitties in the demos. Keep squeezing that cat!
Thank you for the kind words.
Awesome video! Keep them coming!
Can we squish dogs too?
Absolutely!
Yes, but only once... lol
Not at all. I used to take care of an aggressive Shi Tzu with cardiac disease while working overnights in the ICU as a student. I'd give that little monster 8 tablets during a 10 hr shift. Don't remember how many times that dog was admitted, but it was more than a few. Of course I wouldn't fancy pilling a wolf or a psychotic rottweiler, but you, my dear viewer, shouldn't either.
Keep the videos coming doc! I don't even have a pet and love watching these! More of Mr.Pirate please :D
Thank you! I just shot a bunch of videos today, many featuring Mr. P.
Could you maybe make a video about how to keep dogs from eating things they shouldn't, like grass or acorns?
A few days ago my three year old, otherwise healthy dog, had to be left home alone for a long period during the day, and ate several things he shouldn't have, and ultimately he didn't survive. He was always hungry, but our vet said he was overweight and we should be careful about how much we fed him. So he was always eating things he found in the yard, on the floor, or snatching food from the counter, and none of our prevention methods worked. It's obviously too late for us, but I think other dog owners could benefit from some tips on how to keep them from eating or chewing things they shouldn't.
My dog would not take Tramadol after his TPLO surgery no matter how I tried to give it to him. He learned how to push his tongue back in order to catch the pill when I used a pill gun. He wouldn’t take it in any food or pill pockets, no cream cheese, no peanut butter, no meats or cheeses. It was so stressful when 8 hours rolled around, I knew of the impending battle that laid ahead! Finally we tried something that was a lifesaver! We went to a Pharmacy and bought small empty gel caps, only big enough to fit the pill inside. Then I would hide in his normal food. He would eat it up with NO PROBLEMS! I couldn’t believe it! Worked like a charm!
I find your channel very helpful especially this video because my dog is currently taking medication for his Lyme disease
Laura Alarcon aww, Lyme sucks! Hope your good boye (or girl) gets over it soon!
why am i watching this,
I don't even have a dog
Squish that cat!
Healthy boye!
I don't even own a dog right now and yet I watched this. :D Very helpful, tho I wonder what to do when you have a less trusting dog..
Could you please explain why dogs dont bite if your hand is in their mouths? (Just asking to be more confident about it)
For two reasons: 1) A bite is a set of motor commands issued by the brain to the motor muscles of the head and neck that results in a forward extension of the neck and a clamping of the jaws. When something is being shoved down the back of a dog's throat, the last thing the dog will do reflexively is extend the neck, it will more likely back-up or have a gag response, so you're basically hacking their motor functions. 2) With the nose elevated and jaw open, there is no leverage for a bite, they would need to back up and close the mouth before starting a bite motion, which buys you some time.
Or more simply, dogs and cats just don't think to bite when something hits the back of the tongue!
Cedric is such a cutie!
Cedric is such a fucking cutie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He looks happy
This is definitely the good bois channel
That dog is precious
Thanks
1:38 the exact moment Cedrick realises there's a treat. look at the eyes
Cute dog!
Oh, man. I wish I knew it was okay to reach that far back into the throat when I had to watch my boss' dog for a long weekend. She had several pills she needed to take each day and she got wise to the peanut butter trick on the last day. I did essentially the same thing but instead rolled it down the back of her tongue because she was becoming a wiggle worm. I closed her mouth and lifted her snout and the pill made it down without incident. Thankfully she still liked me after that. Thank you for the pointers!
My dog "inhales" everything wrapped in sausage.
A tick removal video would be super helpful :)
I had the same issue with my cat with its flea treatment but now they use a liquid that you put just behind its head
Doctor do more videos please!...
2:54 "Remember to always have fun with your dog." - Dog: "Yeah, that's a lot of fun. Ha."
I have a very smart german shepherd and she WILL make a swallowing sound and then cough the pill up. I use peanut butter on a spoon now, and it works now that it's a routine before breakfast.
you can also wrap it in a cheese slice
What breed of dog is he? He's so cute!
Lol 😂 I’m really surprised that this dog has same name as mine.
I can show you my hurt thumbs from my elderly chihuahua with chf.lol I dont think she can hurt me with the front ones but those jaws..ouch
I dont have a pet right now but i will when i grow up atleast i hope
Doctor would you please do a video about what to do when you cat doesn't like to drink much water and won't eat wet food to compensate.
TIA
Don't worry about it. Cats, and all animals really, will drink the right amount when they are healthy. Unless they have an underlying illness, in which case, more fruitful to focus on the illness.
Doctor, can you make a video about how to wash a cat/ dog and how to dry them properly! Especially for a cat. They dont like the dryer, so they run away- am I supposed to let them or am i supposed to hold them and dry them?
I'll consider it but grooming isn't really my main jam. If many people request a bathing video I'm more likely to do it :-).
Helpful Vancouver Vet ah alright! Thank you for replying and posting these educational videos :-)
Air dry should be fine with a short hair at least. My cat just licked itself clean again. Of course not in super cold temperatures... that might be uncomfortable.
I have a question. Do you need to college to be a vet assistant or is it a hands on training kind of thing?
It is a 2 year program in Canada and US. Some people do the job with on the job training, but training to become a registered vet tech is still beneficial long-term if you want to do it for more than a year or two.
How to give a dog a pill that makes him squish cats.
Will this approach work with more aggressive dogs that may have been trained to defend homes, such as German Shepards?
Yes. Assuming you're their owner and not a burglar.
My vet told me similar tricks when giving my cats pills. However, I am always scared that my cats will choke on the pill if I put it too far down or if I do it wrong... Any tricks to avoid that happening when giving cats pills?
Please check out my "how to pill a cat" video and let me know if you have any questions after watching it :-)
Just did! Thank you so so much!!! Love these videos and please keep them coming!!! 😻😻❤️❤️❤️
I think I need lots of practice
Aaaaayy
Cedric looks a bit on the older side.. imagine a 60 year old dog having some youngin push down a pill its throat from the dog's POV... lol
I found it impossible to feed the pill like this. My dog will stubbornly refuse to swallow and make faces as the pill dissolves in her mouth and tastes bad and the moment I let go she spits it out. My best success was mashing cheese around it because she will eat cheese without chewing and practically inhale it.
Of course wrapping it in something tasty is nice for your dog, and I strongly encourage it, but if you want to pill in a hurry, here is my troubleshooting tip for you: If pill is spat out - it wasn't shoved far enough back! Pointing the chin at the ceiling helps too.
Why are the animals you choose so cute???
FUN? You even have to entertain a dog when you're giving it a pill? 🐾
Just like a cat... but easier?
how to wash dog that doesn't like water
what do you do when your dog is a hundred and fifty pound monster? don't think that would go down so well with him...
Better make sure you put the pill in the back of the mouth. I usually find bigger dogs much easier to do than small ones. Of course if your dog is highly aggressive, this may not be the right way to medicate them and you should talk to your vet about alternative pathways of administering medication.
You could rap it in a slice of salami
I used to crumble a pill into a powder, open dog's mouth and put the powder on her tongue. Shehad no choice but to swallow, coz she couldn't spit out the powder :) Worked best with small pills
