45 Tried to hide pill

Good if your dog eats things quickly but if dog eats gently then will still spit it out

... for a while.

Although these are a good product, they are not as good as the EasyPill Assist products when it comes to being able to hide the pills in the products as they do not close up very well, allowing the smell of the tablets to override the smell of the 'treat'.

The moulded shape of them was useful, but again they didn't close up very well - which is what we wanted as our dog was super smart when it came to medication detection.

It’s normally impossible to give George tablets, even ones which are supposed to taste good, but he loves these wrap-around tablet concealers and obviously thinks he’s getting a treat.

I’ve had to give our beloved cocker spaniel a large number of tablets for cancer over the last few months. These pill assist pouches have been a godsend. Just place inside, squish the pouch and gone in seconds.

Pill suitable for dog with kidney failure

Emma Mitchell

My dog has kidney dysfunction. She is on a low phosperous and low protein diet but needs 3 pills a day for arthritis. Is the royal canin pill assist suitable for a dog who needs these low nutrition quantities?

  • VioVet Staff

Any addition to the diet may affect how well the current diet works, including a pill assist product like this. The amount given compared to the overall diet will be so small though that it is unlikely to be a problem. We would advised checking with your vet first though as it does depend on the severity of your pet's kidney disease and how important dietary control is.

Pancreatitis

Jill

Hi my dog has pancreatitis and only eats Royal Canin low fat Veterinary gastro instestinal food. Are these pill givers suitable for him please as he is also epileptic and has 7 tablets a day. Thank you

  • VioVet Staff

Dogs with severe pancreatitis can be set off by very slight diet changes, it is best to stick to a recommended low fat diet as the only food. The Pill Assist should not interfere with the epilepsy and is very unlikely to interfere with the pancreatitis. However without knowing the severity of the pancreatitis it is impossible to guarantee it won't, I advise discussing this with your vet to be certain.

Kidney patients

Gel

Is pill assist okay for a dog with kidney problems?

  • VioVet Staff

This depends on the severity of the kidney issues. If only mild then this should cause no issues, however if moderate/severe then any changes in diet can be an issue. Any animal with kidney problems should ideally be on a special kidney veterinary diet as the only food they are given.

The amount you will give of the pill assist is so tiny though compared to the total diet that it is likely it will not interfere. However you should run any changes past your vet to be safe. If the medication you are giving using the pill assist is to help the kidneys then it is likely the benefits of this far outweigh any risks from the resultant slight diet change.
