Some people are like Slinkies... They're really good for nothing.
...But they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

Great to hear that he is feeling better.   

Greenies has a pill pocket for dogs & cats.  It's like a soft treat that has a hole in it.  You put the pill in the squeeze the treat around the pill.   I have a cat that has to take thyroid medication daily, I'm not sure what we would do if we hadn't found the pill pockets.   Here is a link to them  http://www.amazon.com/Greenies-Pill-Pockets-Beef-Capsules/dp/B000QSON4K/ref=pd_bxgy_k_img_c

Thanks Deb...really...if he may have to be on antibiotics for 6 mos to 2 years...( ???)...this could save us a lot of agrirvation.  Kool...thank you. Who knew? Neither one of our dogs has ever been sick a day in their lives before this...

LQ,
I'm late on this but I told my two Scotties about Monty and how he was sick and needed their support.  You've got double Scottie dogs looking out after Monty.  Sabastian's black and Sasha is white(ever seen a white Scottie? not a Westie)  They both have Monty's back.  He is in the best of hands, uh paws.

Continued best thoughts for Monty and your family.  Sucks when the puppies are sick and can't tell you what's wrong.  Even when they're sick they still have nothing but pure love in their eyes.

Thanks Ky...he's doing good...has a big incision on his tummy for the next two weeks...but this little guy bounced back pretty quick!! He has about 20 staples going on but damn he's a trooper...  :)

And no, honestly, I have never heard of a white Scottie...but they are pretty dogs in black....in white I bet Sasha is a beauty!! Give them a wooff from our two...to say thanks!! Monty is black and white...Maggie is a blonde bombshell...both Shih Tzus...neither the sharpest knives in the drawer but our little babies none the less!!  ;D

Thanks again for the post...

Hey Deb...got those pill pockets today...SWEET...pills went down in a heartbeat...thanks for the tip...  :) For anybody else who may have the  doggie pill psychosis as we have...these things are great!!

HCT

LaQuinta, How is Monty doing today? It is truly amazing how dogs bounce back so fast, like nothing ever happened.
I never have troubles with meds with my boys. Damn labs eat everything. :D :D :D I usually bury it in a piece of cheese or surround it with cream cheese. Or anything for that matter. :P :D :D :D

Hey HCT...he's doing fine...has about 20 staples in his little tummy and haven't had to cone-head him yet. He's a good boy...He gets up and plays for 15 minutes...the sleeps for four hours!!

Thanks for asking!  :)

Sounds like Monty and I have a lot in common....... ;D

Really glad he's doing well, Q.
