​Healthy, Cheap Way to Feed Tablets to Dogs - April 2016

​My dog has 2 very large tablets daily. She used to have them wrapped up separately in bread, usually taking a slice or more to get them down as she was 'dog clever' and managed to spit the tablet out. So using up lots of bread and being a lab, she does not need the extra carbs! Butter worked but was too oily and can lead to filming across her eyes (vet told me that).

Now I just make up every week a bowl of béchamel sauce. Dip the spoon in, plonk tablet into middle of sauce and say "treat". It disappears in a flash. No wasting bread, no added doggy kilos and a happy owner. 

The sauce lasts almost a week and has saved me money, time and effort. An added bonus is she also gets some calcium and she loves it.
