If you have ever had a dog that needed medicine, you can appreciate how difficult it is to give pills to someone who doesn't want to take them. If the medicine is not available in liquid form and your dog really resents your attempts at trying to force a pill down his throat, consider hiding the pill in a special treat. For many dogs, the treat is just so tempting that they readily swallow it, along with the medicine. Some common foods to hide pills in include:
The easiest was to give medication is to hide it in food. But what do you do with the finicky pet? You might like to try some other alternative methods.
Some medications can be hidden in a small amount of food such as marshmallows, peanut butter or cream cheese. If hiding the pill in food is not working, try this method.
