(Keyword: least, it definitely will still make you want to grab a napkin and wipe the grease off your hands). So if you don't care about the Pill Pockets being a bit dry and tougher to form, go with the Peanut Butter flavor. If you don't mind the grease then either go with the Chicken or Hickory Smoke flavor. Definitely would avoid the Cheese flavor altogether! … more

I purchased these online as a replacement for a package of chicken flavored pill pockets I picked up in a pet food store. When they arrived, I was surprised and delighted to note these are tablet sized, not pill size. And my dog loves the flavor. Because I cut the pill pockets to size and can cover anywhere from 4 to 6 pills for my 25 lbs dog, I ended up getting a whole lot more pills covered for a slightly lower cost than those pockets I purchased in a store. Win -win.

After a long time of hiding a capsule in cream cheese my kidney disease dog suddenly would not take the capsule that way anymore. Since she needed the medication twice a day I needed to fine a solution quick. I picked the Hickory Smoked ones because I figured they would have the strongest scent to hide the pill behind and they have worked well. Problem solved.

I have fostered dogs for years, mostly medical cases, and I have to say this particular flavor- hickory smoke- seems to stay moldable (moist) longer than all the other flavors (even if i leave the bag open overnight) LOVE LOVE the hickory smoke pill pockets & haven’t fostered or owned a single dog that refuses them yet and have #56 in care now.

My dog likes these better than the chicken flavored ones. Just be careful because these are the capsule ones that are bigger than the standard. But they stay so moist and are easy to mold so it was still easy to just break it apart and use a piece of one to mold around a tablet

My Chihuahua has to take medication twice daily, and these are a Godsend. They are moist and squishy and make it easy to push her pills in and to mold the treat around them. They are also strongly scented (gross for us) which help disguise the scent of her pills. My Chihuahua looks forward to her medication times now. :)

My latest purchase was mid Feb., these pill pockets are usually great and get the job done until now. They are hard and crumble as soon as you try and mold it around a pill. They are usually dough-like consistency and easy to mold. Very disappointed, hopefully this doesn't happen again. Also needs better packaging, half the bag usually comes squished because they are just thrown in the box with heavy items.

I was using the chicken pill pockets. He then associated them with the pills. We decide to change to peanut butter and beef. He loves these. A change made all the difference. He is back to taking his pills. No problem. .

Greenies pill pockets make the med issue a non issue. All our dogs love the taste and since one of them requires daily heart and allergy medication we needed a easier way to give the pills rather than trying to hide them in hot dogs, cheese etc. Thanks to pill pockets our lab comes out to take his pills when he hears the bag rattle. Our other two also love pill pockets when they need to take meds. Highly recommend them!

My dogs have always loved the beef flavor pill pockets. The other flavors they can be picky on. I have two dogs and I get the bigger pill pocket and split it into two treats. Saves money and still gets the job done.
