I used cheese to "hide" the pill before I hit on the Vienna sausage. It works. I've never found a dog who wouldn't snarf down cheese. But you have to unwrap the cheese, cut a piece off of it, and dig out a little hole or something to put the pill in. The VS just seems to work a little easier for me, and the cans will keep forever as long as they are not opened.
Besides, I can resist the VS easier than I can the cheese. ;)
Oh yeah, I can resist VS too. :)
When I knew I had to give my dog a pill everyday, I would leave the cheese out of the refrig and the soft cheese was easy to mash around the pill.
If you want to know how to give a cat a pill, let me know.
