    Syringe medicine

He's about 2 1/2 years old now and I've started adding blue buffalo and wellness mix to his diet and he acts like...

    Syringe medicine

    Hey all, I had to bring my boy to the vet yesterday because he had gotten diarrhea that was greener than Christmas and hadn't been eating as much. Dr did a poo sample and prescribed the little guy some antibiotics. He's making it super easy to give him the medicine by syringe- he actually acts...
