My dog would nibble the cheese in her mouth and spit out the pill. She could eat anything around a pill. If I coated it in peanut butter, she’d suck it off like a lollypop and then hide the pill under the kitchen cabinets to make me think she took it.
Mine will see a pill coming a mile away if you attempt to give it to her straight and just walk away from a pile of bacon with a pill in the middle, but a wadded up kraft single is a cheese ball no questions asked
Kong makes this like… meat flavored whip cream? That stuff is particularly sticky. My dog usually does the spit-the-pill-back-out thing unless I use that goop. Careful though because if you spill it on anything it WILL get chewed on.
When I last had a dog (I still love and miss you, Ali) he would eat whatever I wrapped his pill in and spit out the pill. I had to put the pill in his mouth, gently hold his snoot close, and massage his throat until he swallowed the pill. Cats I’ve lived with? I tried to give a pill to one of my cats. The cat became a whirlwind of anger, fury, and indignation. I think they bent time-space and opened a wormhole. I wound up taking them to the vet, and having a vet tech give my cat the pill.
Tell me you’ve only had one or two dogs without saying it. There are plenty of dogs that hate pills.
Never met a dag that didn’t like cheese

Plenty of dogs will separate the cheese or separate it and spit it out. I’m not saying it’s all dogs, just a stupid generalization.

That’s true, one in 3 dogs hates pills.
