What our vet says
"When using the syringe, you should be trying to shoot as much of the paste as possible over the back of the tongue - where it won't come back out. When your horse bobs his head or turns, follow this motion until he's still. Worming your horse is part of its basic care routine, so accomplishing a good technique is a must!"
