Anti-aging pill for senior dogs is now in clinical trials::undefined
My dog is such a dumbass he would spit out the immortality pill even if I cover it with peanut butter
I have 2 dogs, 1 that does this and 1 that eats everything including cat shit from the litter box. That dumbass will live forever if I give him this pill, because he’d eat his sister’s too.
Have you tried something like a Pill Pocket?
My goldie-mutt would spit out every pill I ever gave her no matter how much cheese or peanut butter it was buried in, but since we started using these she gobbles them up instantly. The ding dong thinks she’s getting a treat everyday but joke’s on her, it’s her medicine.
Pill pockets worked on my cat twice. After that he was like “waitaminute! This is medicine!” So now I put the pill in the pocket and just shove it down his throat and he gets real treats afterwards.
Or have you guys tried giving the pill alone? My cat has multiple pills every day, I always saw my dad give my dogs pills growing up, you put it on the back of their tongue and they can’t help but swallow it. A little neck massage and some coaxing with gentle head pets and holding their head back has always worked for me. My cat doesn’t even get up when she’s lying down and hears me open the pills. She perks her head up, almost like she looks forward to it. She’s a weirdo.
When my doggo was younger, we would just do that- drop it in the back of her throat then hold her mouth shut and massage her throat to encourage her to swallow. But now that she’s on a vet-prescribed regimen for probably the rest of her life, it’s just easier to pop a pill in the meat pouch since she just gobbles them up.
The article doesn’t say how this works at all.
It sounds awesome, but I’d like to know more about it before I gave my dog a magic chewable.
LOX-002 inhibits insulin like growth factor 2 which is thought to reduce useful lifespans of dogs through some metabolic mechanism
Coulda used that sometime before last week :/
Leftists: Only the rich will get the longevity drugs!
Reality: Let’s give it to the dogs…
edit: And they fucking deserve it, after what we did to them by years of selective breeding!
Damn maybe that one crackhead that kidnapped a scientist to make a dog live forever was onto something.
