ParticipantAnyone have an opinion on Greenies Pill Pockets. I use them to feed my dogs their Lipiderm supps. I try to stay grain free with all the food products I use but havenāt found an alternative for these.

MemberIāve used them before for an epilepsy dog that was hard to pill. They have some ingredients that I would rather not use and if I knew then what I know now, I especially wouldnāt use them for a dog with epilepsy. Now I use braunschweiger(a soft liver sausage), soft cheese, a ball of raw ground beef, peanutbutter, a spoonful of yogurt, anything like that. I heard from someone the other day that they use a spoonful of honey.

MemberIāve used them, too. They do work for my picky, picky mixed breed who wonāt take anything! Sometimes she wonāt even take a biscuit brand that sheās eaten many times before! Anyway, I stopped using them now and I use cheese. Another favorite is coconut oilā¦.but you have to pill quickly or itāll melt in your hand lol.

MemberThey have an allergy free one that is duck and pea and they smell horrid. It is the only way I can get my girls to take their meds right now. I donāt give a whole one but just break off enough to mold it around a pill.

MemberIām glad you donāt give a whole one. Those things are high in fat.

MemberCould you please elaborate on the negative effects of the ingredients in Greenies pill pockets. I have border collies that have had seizures, and have been using the pill pockets to give them their medications. Please let me knowā¦

MemberPill Pockets for Dogs
Rehydrated chicken, glycerin, wheat flour, vegetable oil, wheat gluten, dried corn syrup, dried cultured skim milk, natural flavors, sodium bisulfate, natural chicken bouillon flavor, hickory smoke flavor, xanthan gum, preserved with mixed tocopherolsI donāt see anything that I would be concerned about in small amounts. If itās working I wouldnāt change anything.
I have to bury my dogās pill in soft canned food (small amount) and observe for at least 10 minutes in case she decides to cough it up.
PS: I see those pill pockets being sold at my vetās office, donāt think they would do so if there were negative reports.anonymous
MemberAnother trick, bury the pill in soft butter or smart balance (whatever you use) just a quarter size lump or smaller. Works like a charm every time š
