A client brings in a puppy for its first examination at your clinic. The routine physical exam is normal; however, the puppy has intestinal parasites. The puppy is prescribed an oral liquid dewormer that is prepared and dispensed in a syringe to the client. The client is advised to bring in a follow-up stool sample 2–3 weeks after the last dose of dewormer is given to the puppy. When the client
gets home, he attempts to give the puppy its dewormer. He is having trouble restraining the puppy to insert the syringe rectally. The client believes that the medication has to be given rectally because the worms were present in the puppy's stool. How could this confusion have been avoided? What will be an ideal response?
