[Dailydrool] Giving pills (to a small moose!)

[Jane Hay]

I give Suzy a pill twice a day for her incontinence. It's very easy. I just
wrap my hand around her nose, open her mouth and put the pill on the back of
her tongue then hold her mouth shut till she swallows. No big deal. Well,
the 165 pound mastiff is on medication right now and needs a pill twice a
day. Have you ever given a pill to a mastiff? Envision yourself giving a
pill to a cow because that's what it's like. There's no wrapping your hand
around this muzzle, let me tell you. Then to put the pill in the back of her
throat is like going in up to your elbow! Drool and slime everywhere! I need
a full body condom to do this! YUK! Thank doG this baby moose has such a
sweet personality or I'd be missing more than a couple of fingers!
