Use a Marshmallow for Dog Medication

RE: Use a Marshmallow for Dog Medication Post By (Guest Post) (03/12/2008) I've always heard that raw eggs are good for dogs. Heard it made for a healthy/shiney coat. Also, I did a research online for homemade doggie treats and a lot of them called for garlic. Guess I'll have to ask my vet because I keep hearing contradictory info on sooo many foods.

They can get stuck in your dogs throat and with the saliva, turn to goo and block the breathing. A better way is to put the pill in a little dollop of peanut butter on your finger tip. The PB makes it impossible for them to spit the pill out, so down the hatch it goes. Notice, I said "small dollop" for the peanut butter!!!!! Something about the size of your finger tip should do it.

Just buried the pill inside the cheese & down it went, no problem. Report Spam or Abuse
