About twice the size of the chicken flavour, and really malleable so easy to squish around tablets. Dog loves them! Very expensive, but they work and make life a lot easier for daily medication.

I’ve been using Greenies Pill Pockets in the Large Size for Capsules, and they’ve completely transformed the way I give my dog his medication.
**Effectiveness:**
These pill pockets are a game-changer. Their soft and flexible texture allows me to effortlessly insert a capsule and mold it around the pill, completely hiding it. My dog, who once dreaded taking his medication, now eagerly gobbles it down without a second thought.
**Taste & Texture:**
The chicken flavor is a definite winner for my dog. The treats are pliable enough to mold comfortably around the pill, yet firm enough to keep their shape, ensuring the hidden medication remains a mystery until it’s consumed.
**Ingredients:**
Each treat is made with a well-thought-out selection of ingredients:
– Chicken
– Glycerin
– Wheat Flour
– Wheat Gluten
– Vegetable Oil
– Dried Corn Syrup
– Natural Flavor
– Natural Cheese Flavor
– Water
– Citric Acid (preservative)
– Mixed Tocopherols (preservative)
– Vinegar
– Rosemary Extract
Keep in mind that these treats do contain wheat and corn syrup, which could be a concern for dogs with dietary restrictions or allergies.
**Packaging & Value:**
With a 15.8 oz package containing 60 pill pockets, you get excellent value for regular medication routines. The resealable bag is a nice touch, keeping the treats fresh for future use.
**Conclusion:**
Greenies Pill Pockets have made the once-difficult task of administering medication to my dog surprisingly easy and stress-free. While they might not be ideal for every dog due to specific dietary needs, for many, they are an essential tool for ensuring consistent medication adherence.
They look cute. They don’t smell bad and they aren’t too thick.

I have distinct memories of giving my dogs pills as a kid. Or shall I say I have distinct memories of the battles we had trying to give our dogs pills. One of our dogs was a master at the cheeking, no matter how much butter we put on it.
Bless the makers of these pill pockets though. Gone are the days of rubbing the throat or having to check cheek pockets. Now I just pop the pill in one of these and my dog comes running. Some mornings she will only eat her pill pocket and wait to eat her breakfast later.
I like that they are soft and quite malleable. Our dog had to be on a few pills post surgery and I found that I could sneak a few pills into each pill pocket.
Even if you don’t need to give your dog pills every day, these are still good to have one hand for those just in case moments.

This product has been an absolute game changer. I tried EVERYTHING before. Cheese, salami, bread, even using wet food for pills. Nothing worked.
This does. Giving my dog medicine has become a treat for both of us now.
For anyone saying it doesn’t work, I’d say try these pro tips:
At first, my dog did not respond to these. He would be able to find the pill and spit it out. Now what I do is – I give him one of these WITHOUT any pills in it first. I squash it together first obviously so he can’t tell it’s empty. Once he trusts me (he always takes the first gingerly to see if there’s something in it), I have the next one with the pill in it ready to go.
I don’t chase him around with it offering it to him. Once he’s had the first, he follows me around waiting for the second (with the pill) like it’s any other treat. Eventually, I give it to him and he’s so excited about it he doesn’t even notice the pill.
If you have larger pills (or even something as bulky as like a simperica trio block), if you’re able I recommend cutting it up into multiple treats. Buying a bag of these is much cheaper than the half chewed medicine they won’t take.
I love this stuff. It smells great, it’s pliable, heck even I want to try it 😅😂🤣

My dog is now 14 and needs to take pills every day. He is still quite mobile and doesn’t want pills, and he is smart enough to eat around anything I put his pils in. The only thing that works without a hassle is these pill pockets. He loves them so much he doesn’t suspect that there is a pill inside and he feels spoiled because he gets a special treat twice a day now! If you’re struggling to give your dog pills these are worth a try.

Our dog is older and has a brain tumor. To slow its progress and buy time before we have to lose her (she’s not in pain or suffering but the end is inevitable), she’s on pills three times a day. Both pills and capsules. I tried cheese, peanut butter, etc. no matter what we did she picked the pills out. She got to the point of grinding on the tablets and opening the capsules and mixing it with wet food but she still knew it was there and it was a fight to get her to take her medicine. I was complaining to a friend and she said to try the Greenies Pill Pockets. She said they work BUT get the stinkiest ones. She said her last dog had the same issue with meds and all the tricks didn’t work and she tried the peanut butters ones and nothing. But then she tried the hickory and it was a score. She said the stronger scent overpowers their ability to smell of the pills if you have a pickier dog. I’m willing to try anyone thing once so ok. We ordered a small bag. Hickory flavor.
HOLY HECK!!! It worked. I shoved both her capsule and her tablet in one pocket, mushed it closed, and handed it to her. She gobbled it up. In fact she likes them SO MUCH she will not eat her food until she gets her pill pocket treat! If you buy the capsule ones you can fit a small tablet and a capsule inside and mush it closed so the contents are virtually all covered. Sometimes I buy the tablet ones by accident so she gets two at once but the capsules don’t fit well in the tablet ones. So save yourself the grief
If your dog won’t even eat the other flavors try the hickory. They smell like beef jerky. But they work. Every time. She actually wants her pills now. No fight. Just a happy dog and happy owner!

二度目の購入ですが梱包もしっかりとしていますし思ったより早く届きました。国内生産をしていないようで動物病院では手に入りませんのでAmazonで購入出来て助かりました。商品内容は国内のと変わらないと思いますので今後も購入しようと思います。

Es estupendo para poder darle a mi perrita su Medicación. Tiene que tomar varias pastillas al día, y las meto dentro del pockedpill y se las toma encantada. Le gusta mucho su sabor y no nota las pastillas dentro…!
