PUMP BOTTLES
A dose consists of 2 pumps of remedy onto the tongue, gums or lips. Can also be given on a piece of food. Most horses love the sweet taste but if your horse is nervous about being dosed, you can put the dose on your finger and dab it on their lips or gums. They do not need to swallow the dose, it just has to come into contact with their tongue or gums.
Give 3 pumps orally after the event. Repeat the dose a half hour later and then a 3rd dose 2-3 hours later.
JERRY CANS
