Hi
I'm having an awful time getting my Millie to take her Baytril by syringe
She has a major fit everytime the syringe goes near her mouth, the only place I found worked was kneeling on the floor and clamping her between my legs this holds her still but she's now started biting up the syringe and grabbing it in her teeth the past few days she's bitten my fingers very hard doing this and nipped my legs.
She's not one for treats either so not sure I'd get it past her on food, I've also tried wrapping her in a towel but I don't think I'm doing it properly as she either manages to escape or bites the towel so I can't get the syringe near her mouth.
I know there's a way of wrapping a bun in a towel so just their head shows and the towel is all tucked in so they are like in a bag and can't move can anyone expain how to do this and make it secure?
I've given meds loads of times but never to such a feisy bun, I'm sitting here nursing a cut finger and feeling that I'm being a bit useless for Millie as I can't guarantee she's getting the full dose each time.
