Howllo Fellow Hound and not loving the pill giving procedure, (at all)! I thought that I would share my trick for pill giving with my friends. Emma cannot tolerate protein. She is allergic to most everything so I have to be careful. That means no meat or cheese.
She is on antibiotics and pain medicine after her procedure.
Emma can extract a pill from anything and then hold it in her mouth, while wagging her tail until you walk away. Then, days later, you will find them scattered in the bed. NOT GOOD!
Here is my almost fail safe solution.
Give us our day, our daily bread pill taking method!
Buy a bag of soft white bread and a pill cutter.

These are Emma’s pills for the day. After I cut the big one into 4 pieces, she gets 5 pieces – twice a day.

As you can see, I have the 10 pieces of pill cut for her. 1/2 in the am and 1/2 in the pm. Believe me, I have tried everything and she can spit them out. This is the only method that works for smart girls like Emma.

Place each pill piece into a soft bread square and make a ball. Remember when you were a kid and balled up bread? Well, hounds are just kids and they love it too!

The bread balls are ready for the day, but why are there extra sections needing to be balled up?

Chaps gets the placebo!
More bread balls later…….Cat, Chaps and Emma
P.S. did you notice the star I drew near my thumb? That is how I remember things very important. I need more bread tomorrow.
