could you please pass this on to other chow friends?
My little Zahra is only a year old and has a badly dislocated hip due to a fall, was told she has dysplasia, she came from a wonderful breeder and her parents hips were both checked, she is the only puppy out of 3 litters to have any issues.

I just lost my 16 year old chow the day after Easter and am still trying to find my wits about me, let alone the financial burden, anything you can do to help would be so greatly appreciated even if it is to share this link.
I have also posted it on this site's FB page

You might also ask your vet to accept donations and include his information for people to pay the vet directly (something I noticed on facebook). I guess there are people out there that have been scammed by others using the guise of a sick pet. I believe you are just trying to help your baby and will be sending a small donation.

OK so lil miss is outsmarting me....I have tried pill pockets, I've tried peanut butter, crushing them up in people food and she will not eat them...got her to do it a few times but seems like the harder I try the smarter she gets and she needs to have her pain meds until she can have surgery

Any ideas??

Put the pill into the back of her throat, close her mouth for a second, and she'll just swallow it. No muss, no fuss. It's a reflex and it works great, with no stress for anyone!

She is using pill pockets now lol

Did u see my new addition?

We have to give Ursa daily pills. Like Sarahloo said, we just open her mouth, stuff the pill as far down as possible, close her mouth, hold it closed and wait for her to swallow. The fish oil caps we give like a treat. Malachi expects to get something if Ursa gets something, so we make them both sit and wait, them offer the cap after they comply. It works. Now you can also wrap a pill in a slice of cheese. Basically, what ever works is what you do.
