Tips & Strategies
Dont get stressed over its short wake up time, figure out how many narcotics it will take to fill its torpor from as close to 0 as possible, its about 1 stack for every 4000 torpor points. Place this in the inventory and allow your dimetridon to get as close to waking up as possible and then feed him all the narcotics at once. It will take just over 10 minutes for a stack of narcotics to take affect. This will give you time to look away and do other things.
Keep in mind, lower torpor (lower level dimetridons) may have less than 4000 torpor, in which case they will wake up sooner because they cant use a full stack of narcotics. Higher level dimetridons have closer to 8000 torpor, in which case you can feed them 2 stacks and they will take over 20 minutes to consume the narcotics.

Easy way to tame (Works if you have Argentavis or Quetzal):
Step 1: Go to the swamp with your Argentavis or Quetzal and search the area for Dimetrodon. Once one is found, pick it up and carry it somewhere safe (recommended: The Dead Volcano, or your base. Just make sure everyone is set to passive).
Step 2: Let it wander around for a while. Knock it out every so often to check on its hunger. If it is not hungry upon knockout, let it wake up and heal for a while. Repeat until it is completely starving.
Step 3: Once one of your checkups on the Dimetrodon via knockout reveals that it is completely starving, grab whatever meat you have as fast as you can (prime meat if its a high level). The starving status causes the Dimetrodon, as well as all other creatures tamed via knockout, to constantly eat every second until they are either tamed or not hungry anymore.
I did all of this myself at the Dead Volcano, which it arrived there via my male Quetzal, Flappy. Argentavis can also pick them up for delivery. Hopefully this helps.
