If you're like me you find yourself occasionally trying to find
new and more devious ways to slip your {great dane} dog some medicine without him stubbornly turning his nose at your attempt. I have two standby methods of accomplishing this task.
1. Buy Pill Pockets from Costco. They sell these behind their prescription counter and they work quite well. The drawback is the cost and the special trip to Costco. I have looked for the Pill Pockets repeatedly at Wal-Mart and they do not carry them.
2. Take a 1/2 piece of bread (save the other half for the nighttime pill) and spread a spoonful of peanut butter on it. Push the pill into the peanut butter and fold the bread in half.
But today I created a new idea. This is even better than the pill pocket and quicker than the peanut butter sandwich!
3. Buy a package of hot dogs. Rip off an inch long or so section of the hot dog. Push the pill into meat of the hot dog. The package of hot dogs will last you the whole round of meds this way. Plus, it's so devious and clever and yummy!
Do you have any ideas that I could add to my list? If so, leave a comment.
