Re: Need tasty treat for hiding Lyme disease medicine
This message is from: Warren Stockwell [EMAIL PROTECTED] My favorite method of hiding food is applesauce. I have had great success with it I also have used fruit loops with good rate of success. I feed soaked beet pulp so I hide supplements in there. I make my own apple sauce fresh for the horses 1 apple ( something not to sweet ), a bit of h2o, and a drizzle of molasses. Throw it in a blender and add supplements. Generally goes down like chocolate yummm. Good luck, Roberta MINN I'M a pet sitter and run into this all the time
RE: Need tasty treat for hiding Lyme disease medicine
This message is from: Linda Lottie [EMAIL PROTECTED] Lynn..how about trying a syringe of apple sauce (get a really sweet brand) and some grain pieces mixed in? Use a syringe..she won't have a choice. Then, after she takes the meds.give her hand treats like carrot or whatever she likes. Sorry to hear she is ill.
