I've been doing this every two months for four years now and this wasShortly after moving the horses up here into my full time care I dug
the absolute WORST one ever.
There was worming paste all over D'argo, in every buckle and hole in
his halter, in his ears, in MY ears, on the barn walls, on the floor,
on the seat of a chair 12' away, on my shoes, behind my knees, on the
food bin, in the leather weave of my shoes. If I later find some in
my mailbox I will not be surprised.
I think I'm going to feed-type wormers from now on.
out some paste wormers to give them. One had been rolling around in
the floor board of my car for some time and I decided that Lestat
would get that one. Paige could have the fresher of the two. (and
chances are dewormer that actually worked)
When I squeezed Lestat's tube the stuff pretty much crumbled out of
the end. He promptly balled up it on his tongue and lobbed back at me
at a high rate of motion. Not to be out smarted, I fetched it off the
ground and shoved it back in his mouth using my fingers to smoosh it
along his cheek and tongue. He thought about it for a few seconds
rolling his tongue this way and that... waved his head in the air then
sighed and pretended to nuzzle me,leaving a white smear across my
shoulder and chest. The rest he delicately let dribble from his lips
on the ground.
I laughed as I leaned over and picked up the last 1/2 inch of paste
now reconstituted with saliva and peppered with dirt particles. I
snuggled up close to his face and then snatched his upper lip in my
free hand and smooshed the remaining dewormer across his front teeth.
OH! I had him now! He stood there stunned for another few seconds then
walked over to the water trough gave his lips a good grain cleansing
flop wash then sauntered back close to me and very delibrately dropped
his head down to the ground to rub his lips and teeth back and forth
across the ground effectively grinding the last of the unswallowed
paste into the dirt. I had dewormer buried under each finger nail, in
my hair and two large smears on my arm, on my jeans and shirt, on his
face and legs and side, on the ground and in the water trough. Chances
are he had nothing more than the fleeting taste of it in his mouth.
I've never laughed so hard while trying to accomplish a usually
simple
task.
You win. :D LOL!
