17. Similar doggy issue - my trick...

Wed Oct 28, 2020, 12:26 PM

I keep some grated cheddar/jack type cheese in fridge, and when I want to give his numerous pills, just put a bit in my hand, then the pills and nestle the pills in there. hold it and warm in my hand for a few min and it is a nice little warm cheese ball that he gulps in one take. I'm sure your prep is much tastier for your guy, but if you ever need a lazy way, this seems to work. My guy is also deaf and mostly blind, but he smells this enough to relish getting it.
