Product Description

ill Pockets - Every day millions of pet owners are faced with the difficult task of medicating their pets. Trying to get a pill down has led pet owners to resort to all kinds of tricks - grinding the medicine up and applying to their food, hiding it in table scraps (which reinforces future begging and often results in overweight pets) and lots of pleading and frustration to get their pet to swallow. More times than not efforts were unsuccessful as pets fought tooth and claw to resist taking the medicine.

I have 6 dogs... 1 takes valley fever pills & two are on thyroid pills and from time to time they require other medication.
They however are NOT willing to take it. Cheese, Peanut Butter, Cream Cheese etc. I've tried it all & They are wise to my tricks!

The Pill Pockets are great. They are so pliable that I just break off a piece of one, mold it around the pill and my dogs will nearly take my fingers off to get it!.

One of my dogs is deaf and when she is sleeping she has no idea we are there.. If I wave the Pill Pocket in front of her nose she wakes up and snatches it like a shark!

They are a bit expensive, but they last awhile if you just pull off the size needed for the pill.. It's a waste to use a whole one per pill. I can get about 4-5 pills out of 1 pocket.(using the large ones)

We have 2 dogs who are expert at ferreting out pills stuffed in anything and able to eat around them. Even the pill pockets did not work at first with our pickiest. However, after molding the pocket around the pill, I tried running some water over the glob and smoothing it all around with my finger. This made the pocket better sealed and created a gravy-like coating that even he now eats without hesitation. I think I may have finally proven to be smarter than a dog.

We have a very clever Rottie/Shepherd mix who HATES taking medicine. We tried everything - cheese cubes, hot dogs, chicken breast - and she always found a way to spit the pills out. I had resigned myself to force feeding her medicine until my friend suggested pill pockets. They are great - with a texture almost like moist clay. It is therefore possible to mold them around large and small pills. My dog really likes them. Definitely worth the purchase price!
