Lox

The little dog has an upset stomach, probably from all the antibiotics he's been on this week. He wouldn't eat his breakfast. But he needed to take his antibiotic anyway. The Mother wrapped the antibiotic pill in a piece of chicken. The little dog took the chicken and pill into his mouth, then spit both out onto the kitchen floor. The Mother tried another piece of chicken, this time stuffing the pill into a small slit she'd made with a knife. The little dog once again took the chicken into his mouth and spit it out. The Mother then went for the nuclear option: The Father's favorite lox. The little dog took the lox and the pill and didn't even chew. The lox went down, The Mother says, "like glass." The little dog is clearly Jewish.

Washing your hands after handling the pills help.

Putting the pills in peanut butter works sometimes.

Peanut butter usually works but these dogs can afford to be picky when they're not feeling well. Because the medium dog gets chemo pills every day wrapped in peanut butter, the other two get a little peanut butter every day too. The little one was just holding out this morning for something better. He's a true fish man.
