The Instagram page Doggos Doing Things posted the video and credited it to an Instagram user Ryan Brooks, who uses the username @im.the.ryan. The video opens with a pet dad saying, "Who wants a totally normal peanut butter cracker?" As the video progresses, a response "I do" is heard. The dog now chews the treat having medicines without throwing a fit. It is surprising to watch that it doesn't pop the pills out of his mouth.

"This peanut butter tastes like pharmacy," read a response on the video. Another from a dog page dedicated to Bruno, a Mini Dachshund, wrote, "Why so many tablets though?" "Hilarious," read a third comment on the video by a dog named Luna, a Mini Cockapoo.

"Oh my dog would eat all around those pills believe me," posted an individual. "Your dog doesn't spit them out 1 by 1 when he's done? I do this with my cat and he will eat everything, swallow, and then spit out a perfectly intact pill. I'm like how," wrote another. "Is my dog the only one that treats pills like normal treats? She gets so excited when it comes time for her monthly meds," shared a third.
