My dog had knee surgery Tuesday. She has 4 medications to take everyday. 3 are not chewable. She is allergic to wheat, which is a primary ingredient in pill pockets.
I made my own using peanut butter, homemade oat flour, and pumpkin puree. But I need something more shelf stable, so I replaced the pumpkin puree with liver powder. The new version is very sticky, and not pliable like store bought pill pockets. So when I roll them out into balls, over a short period of time they coalesce back into one giant glob.
Looking for ideas for an add in that will help me get them less sticky.
For those unfamiliar with pill pockets.

Edit: while I appreciate how everyone is giving their dogs pills (except you mouth stuffers, give the pupper a damn treat), I am really looking for ways to perfect my pill pocket recipe.
"it's a bit rude" is an understatement lmao
It's better than not medicating. I've had a dog that learned every pill delivery system and each only works once. She would run away from cheese and hot dogs for awhile. Sometimes it's the only way :(
Yeah Benadryl needs to be administered ASAP when he gets puffy
