Why do they have to be shots, anyhow? When we get hurt, they give a shot sometimes, but they send you home with oral antibiotics. Same with dogs... oral. I can do that!
I don’t know that. I know I’ve been given antibiotics in pill form, and personally I think that is a pain. They either won’t eat them in their feed, and syringing them in, they always manage to slobber some out, and you never know if they got enough, at least that’s the way it’s been for me. I’ve always prefered shots when it comes to important meds for a horse.
I have to give him some bute too today, she gave me some in powder form, and I’ve been trying to figure out what’s the best approach...on his feed, or in a syringe in the mouth...

You know re-reading here....it’s funny something I cannot do is give a dog a shot. I can’t even watch the vet do it. I don’t know why, but seeing dogs, especially Susie, who has never reacted at all to one, makes me really woozy. I can’t handle that.
