Instead of preloading the syring
carry an extra water bottle with your eletrolytes pre mixed. Easy to pop off the
top and fill syring. I just squirt the bottle into my guys mouth. He likes
preform and win so it is not a problem

SuG: Or?.you could just skip the syringe entirely, shake up the
condiment bottle, poke the top in the side of the horse?s mouth and squirt
in a bit. Just a thought.
I like it... except -
will you be able to get the stuff far enough in, though? Or will you just
end up depositing a big glob on the horse's tongue, causing him to spit
it out and give you snake eyes next time you try to elyte him? ...or is it
all in the technique, like Angie's sponging - you have to finesse your aim
to jet a squirt up into the back of his mouth?
Certainly if you
could figure it out, a quick squirt now and again would be dead easy to do
- and a condiment bottle much more convenient to carry than stupid
syringes.
When are EZ Care or someone going to come out with a
gunkproof saddle bag specifically made to carry big syringes with
their plungers stuck out?
