Tink takes a pill everyday(asthma)...she gets it wrapped in cream cheese or butter. First she licks my other finger to get the taste and then she gets the pill ball, then she has to keep licking my fingers till I'm sure it is down. Fortunately, she is small and takes a farely small pill. But if you compare her size to the pill...it is a horse pill.
She also has to have food in her stomach, or.......we use as little of the coating of cheese or butter as possible, but like the vet says...did you get it in and did it stay???
