We used cream cheese in salmon flavor for pills.  Also braunsweiger wrapped around the pills.  But some dogs just won't take a pill and seem to find them in whatever you're hiding it in.  So don't feel bad as long as he gets the after treat he'll forgive you lol.  Fat Boy sounds like he's doing really well!  As he heals your biggest problem will probably be keeping him from doing too much too soon with that puppy enthusium.  Hugs!

Fat Boy is doing well. He had his stitches removed today. There is one spot that isn't quite healed so they gave us some topical spray to put on it every 12 hours. Other than that he is doing great, just a hyper puppy lol.

Glad to hear he's doing well; getting the stitches out makes them feel so much better.

Yay for hyper healing puppies! 😉 What's the spray they gave you? Just curious.

The spray is gentacalm. It's an antibiotic spray.
