Tell me you've only had one or two dogs without saying it. There are plenty of dogs that hate pills.

When I last had a dog (I still love and miss you, Ali) he would eat whatever I wrapped his pill in and spit out the pill. I had to put the pill in his mouth, gently hold his snoot close, and massage his throat until he swallowed the pill. Cats I've lived with? I tried to give a pill to one of my cats. The cat became a whirlwind of anger, fury, and indignation. I think they bent time-space and opened a wormhole. I wound up taking them to the vet, and having a vet tech give my cat the pill.

Never met a dag that didn’t like cheese

My dog would nibble the cheese in her mouth and spit out the pill. She could eat anything around a pill. If I coated it in peanut butter, she'd suck it off like a lollypop and then hide the pill under the kitchen cabinets to make me think she took it.

Mine will see a pill coming a mile away if you attempt to give it to her straight and just walk away from a pile of bacon with a pill in the middle, but a wadded up kraft single is a cheese ball no questions asked

Kong makes this like... meat flavored whip cream? That stuff is particularly sticky. My dog usually does the spit-the-pill-back-out thing unless I use that goop. Careful though because if you spill it on anything it WILL get chewed on.

Plenty of dogs will separate the cheese or separate it and spit it out. I'm not saying it's all dogs, just a stupid generalization.

That's true, one in 3 dogs hates pills.
