seems to do the trick! I was worried Chloe wouldn't eat the pill because it wasn't flavored. I slid it in her morning breakfast, she eats it without drama. I can't believe the amount of money I have saved ordering this item thru you. Fast shipping. Chloe's arthritis remains in check even tho I have changed from Remedyl to Novox, generic carprofin.
