[quote=Anonymous]You need to talk to your vet. Perhaps they can switch prescriptions to smaller pills, or ones that are coated so they don't have a bitter taste, or perhaps some pills are crushable or some capsules can be opened and the powder mixed into his food. I sympathize, OP. I was used to doing the pop-in-mouth for my dog's preventatives, but when he fell sick and had a ton of meds, he started gently clamping his teeth onto my hand, to tell me I'd hit his limit. As it turns out, his pills are small enough that he doesn't mind lapping them up in his wet food, and some are powders that I mix in. But I dread having to try and force him to take a large non-crushable tablet again! [/quote]
