Does your pet hate taking pills? Do they need regular medication or just the occasional dose? Either way, if they are like the pets we know, they probably aren\u2019t apt to pop one with a big gulp of water like humans do. Try these to trick your pets.\u00a0<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \nFreeze-Dried Treats<\/b>\u00a0\u2013 You can moisten them with warm water and wrap them around a pill, or simply push the pill into a dry treat!<\/li>\n
  2. \nDod Friendly Peanut Butter<\/b>\u00a0\u2013 Who doesn\u2019t know and love the old PB trick, this one\u2019s just guaranteed to be junk free and perfect for that natural living pet.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/li>\n
  3. \nSoft Treats<\/b>\u2013 Just snap off a bite-sized piece and push the treat inside. For larger pills you can easily make a \u201cpocket\u201d using a fork prong to create space.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
