   From Google: "Peanut butter is rich in heart-healthy fats and is a good source   
   of protein, which can be helpful for vegetarians looking to include more   
   protein in their diets. A 2-tablespoon serving of peanut butter contains up to   
   8 grams of protein and 2 to 3 grams of fiber."   
      
   My Vet told me _no_ protein because her liver and kidneys are failing along   
   with some of her other organs (the blood test tells it all).  When I got   
   desperate to get some of these meds in her I did put a really small touch of   
   peanut butter on her lip.. then she licked that and it caused her to swallow -   
   but that's it.   
      
   The insane thing is this kind of thing used to be so easy with my two dogs   
   when Indy was alive (Sophie's brother).  I could just stick meds in some beef   
   or chicken and they'd wolf it down. Now I can use bread with her, that kind of   
   works.  But the first reason I even called the vet was because she stopped   
   eating - and she still isn't eating ...   
      
   Right now she's finished the antibiotics he gave me (thank god those are   
   done), and she will get thyroid meds every day - it's a really small tab that   
   I can slip in her mouth.   
      
   Take care,   
   Janis
