Product Information
Greenies Pill Pockets Peanut Butter Flavour Dog Treats turn pill time into treat time. Each soft, shapeable treat has a built-in pouch that wraps around your dog's tablet or capsule, and the peanut butter flavour helps mask the smell and taste of the medicine. One tub holds 30 Pill Pockets (200g), suits dogs over 6kg and needs no prescription.
Health Benefits
- Easier medication days: the built-in pouch hides most tablets and capsules, so your dog takes their medicine as a treat rather than a battle
- Helps mask bitter pills: the peanut butter flavour helps cover the smell and taste that make many dogs spit out or refuse tablets
- Real turkey first: turkey is the number one ingredient, giving a meaty taste most dogs readily accept
- Simple fill, pinch and give: drop the pill in, pinch the top closed and hand it over, no messy wrapping in cheese or sandwich meat
- Less stress for you and your dog: a treat-based routine can help keep pill time calm and positive, especially for dogs on daily or long courses of medication
- Portion-controlled: each Pill Pocket is a single treat, making it easy to keep track of what your dog eats alongside their meals
Greenies Pill Pockets Peanut Butter Flavour are soft dog treats with a built-in pouch that helps hide tablets and capsules at medicine time.
What It's Used For

Frequently Asked Questions
Hold a Greenies Pill Pocket in one hand and drop your dog's tablet or capsule into the built-in pouch. Using the same hand, pinch the top of the pocket closed so the pill is fully sealed inside, then give it to your dog as a treat. To avoid transferring the smell or taste of the medicine, do not touch the outside of the Pill Pocket with the hand that held the tablet. Most dogs take it in one go without noticing the pill.
Greenies Pill Pockets Peanut Butter Flavour are only suitable for dogs over 6kg of body weight. The recommended amount is 1 treat for every 6kg of your dog's body weight per day, so a 12kg dog can have up to 2 Pill Pockets and a 30kg dog up to 5. If your dog is under 6kg, ask your vet about a smaller option for giving their medication.
No. Greenies Pill Pockets Peanut Butter Flavour for dogs contain an irradiated turkey ingredient and must not be fed to cats. Only give them to dogs over 6kg. If you need help giving a cat their medication, ask your vet for a cat-safe alternative.
The pouch in each Greenies Pill Pocket fits most tablets and capsules, and the soft, shapeable texture can be pressed around the pill to seal it in. Some medications should not be given with food or should not be crushed or broken, so check the medication label or ask your vet before hiding a new tablet in a treat. If your dog is on several pills, give them one at a time in separate Pill Pockets.
Yes. Greenies Pill Pockets are a treat, so count them as part of your dog's daily treat allowance and stick to 1 Pill Pocket for every 6kg of body weight per day. Treats should make up only a small share of your dog's diet, with the rest coming from a complete and balanced food. For more on healthy treating, Dr Jack Ayerbe explains how to choose dog treats in detail. Keep the lid closed and store the tub in a cool, dark place so the treats stay soft and easy to shape.
