Two words: Peanut butter! My dog is taking a remadyl pill twice a day, and pill time was not fun or satisfying for a long time. Now, I just imbed the pill in PB, take it on my finger and wipe it on the roof of his mouth, scraping it off inside his top front teeth. After he swallows, he gets to lick the remaining 1/2 tsp off the spoon and then on to dinner. Been going on almost a year and we’re both happy with the procedure.
