Well, I have done this a few times and it worked ok; this morning though she spit the pill out and licked the rest of the peanutbutter off the roof of her mouth, sat down, glared at me, got up & stalked off. My son was laughing so hard... I bought pill pockets and those didn't work, she would take them and hide them in the corners of different rooms around the house. I gave her amoxicillian this morning by squirting it on a piece of chicken, she ate that.
We are going back to the vets this afternoon.
