Dog owners hail 'genius' Pets At Home treats designed to hide tablets in

Dog owners have praised a specially designed tasty treat that helps them to feed medicines to their pooch, saying they "wish they'd found them sooner".

Managing to get dogs to take medicine is an issue that any owner with a stubborn pup has likely experienced when they've been prescribed tablets after a trip to the vet. Despite dedicated owners trying out a range of inventive techniques, from pushing it into a cube of cheese to wrapping it in a slice of ham, some clever dogs will do everything they can to avoid taking their medicine - leading to a stressful situation for everyone involved.

That's where Vivitreats come in, which were created to "help alleviate problems that dog owners often have administering tablets long-term". Priced at £7.50, the treats have an impressive five-star rating on the Pets at Home website, where they can be ordered for home delivery or click and collect, with owners sharing their successful experiences when it came to trying the treats out with their dogs.
