On Saturday September 29th, I received a 2-year old cat from a Rescue. He came to me with a condition which required medication in pill form. I had to administer it to him the next day. It was a struggle, as he was new to me and my other cat, and shortly after I gave up trying to put it into his mouth, then getting him to swallow it. I then tried putting the pill into food (butter), but it didn't work. I then went to the pet store and bought a bag of Greenies Salmon Flavoured Pill Pockets, as well as some high quality wet food. I got home and put the pill into the wet food, which he didn't touch. I then gave him a Pill Pocket (without a pill inside of it) shortly after, to get him used to the taste. He liked it, and ate it. The next day I put a pill in a Pill Pocket, then fed it to him. He gobbled it up! I've been doing this with every other pill I've had to administer to him, with no problems whatsoever. He seems to love this stuff! (Note that I only give him one dose of medication at a time, as recommended by the Vet, every other day, in only ONE Pill Pocket. ) I am considering this product nothing short of marvellous, and I HIGHLY recommend it.

This is how I get my dog to swallow his pills when he’s sick. He loves the chicken flavor and it’s so easy to fold the pill into the treat. I usually break it up into smaller pieces since I have a smaller older dog.

Luckily I haven't needed to give my dogs medicine too often, but these make it so much easier. These are super soft and easy to mold around pills. Your dog has no idea they have medicine to take. I also use these sometimes as just a treat on their own without medicine for my dog that has dental issues. My dog loves the chicken flavor. I think the are reasonably priced.

Pill Pocket chicken treats make giving meds easy—soft texture hides pills well, dogs love the taste. Simple, resealable bag keeps them fresh. Made with decent ingredients and worth the price for the convenience.
