Glad he's doing better, and that the Rimadyl is working for him. Hope you both keep feeling better and better ... dogs DO know when you are giving them a pill. Our first St. Bernard was quite skillful at it. She was capable of eating an entire dinner of dog food in 5 minutes and leaving the pill that was "hidden" in it untouched and clean at the bottom of the bowl. The would, if the pill was in, say, a piece of cheese, gulp the cheese, and hide the pill in her jowls for a minute or so, so just when you thought she'd really swallowed it this time, *plink* out the side of her mouth it would come, while she was looking the other way.
The only sure-fire way, which we often resorted to, was a two-person job. One person held her mouth open, the other threw the pill as far to the back of her throat as possible, then person one clamped her mouth shut, while person two stroked her throat and told her what a good girl she was. When she was obviously swallowed, she got the follow-up treat!
