RE: Dogs taking pills.

Just to share another method.  When your dog is still a puppy - make
pill taking a game!  Start with brewers yeast or their daily heart
worm pill, if it is the season.

I get them to roll over, and I drop the pill down the hatch.  THEN, I
tickle their tummies and play with them for a minute.

Now, after using this technique on two dogs, all I have to do is shake the
pill bottle and they roll over and open-up wide.  Of coarse, I still have
to tickle their tummies.

The fellow at the kennel can't believe it.  We have the only dogs who beg for
their heart worm pills!

Good luck and make it fun!

Joe
