This will depend upon the route of administration for the medication. For an intravenous (IV) shot, the easiest place is the jugular vein in the neck. For a subcutaneous shot, veterinarians typically use the hypodermis over the intrascapular space (between the shoulder blades). Intramuscular shots tend to be given into the hamstring group (semitendinous, semimembranosus and biceps femoris muscles), although the dorsal gluteal muscles or lumbar muscles can also be used.
