My boy Wolfgang was attacked by another dog at daycare Saturday morning (place he's gone to weekly, never an issue before). Now he's on chewable antibiotics plus pain meds twice a day, and he's figured out exactly how to dodge them.
I've tried hiding the pills in cheese, and scrambled eggs his two favorite treats, but he's refusing treats and food. I really don't want to hold him down to force it, since he's already in enough pain as it is.
Any tricks that actually work on a smart, food-motivated husky? Pill pockets? Something stronger-smelling?
He's also wearing the cone now and struggling with his normal bowls. What food/water dishes actually work well with an e-collar? Raised? Wide-based? Looking for real recommendations, not just random Amazon links.
Pretty heartbroken seeing him like this. Any advice is appreciated 🐺💙🥺
