Sport was lucky to have you and I hope when you're ready, you'll open your heart up again to a dog that needs a home.
Sport did really fight taking the pills. He was also not much of an eater. He would often just eat lunch meat slices because he knew I could not hide a pill in it. Everything else he became more and more careful about consuming-- hot dogs, bratwurst, liverwurst, dog food, treats, pill pockets, melted cheese, etc.

The pill gun worked but he really hated it and it would almost always take two of us to get the medicine into him and even then he would have tricks about spitting it out.
