If you have a finicky pet that needs medication and refuses to take it willingly, there is some help available. Physicians and pharmacists realized long ago that adding certain flavors to medicine could greatly increase a child's willingness to take the medication. This was a great help for parents who for years have had to fight, plead and cajole to give their children much needed medication. Finally, veterinarians and pharmacists have realized that what works in children could also work for pets. There are several specialty pharmacies through the country that recognize the difficulty some owners have in giving medication and have come up with a variety of flavors that can be added to enhance pet's willingness to take their medicine. Some of the flavors available for dogs include beef and chicken. For cats, chicken, sardine, tuna or seafood are available.
Once your dog is released from the veterinary hospital, administering home medications can be scary, confusing and, sometimes, difficult to do.
