Recurrent Fur Shots

Reposted from ProZinc. Okay, so I’m really, really stressed right now, and I feel like I’ll never get good at Lola’s shots. I do her shots by injecting with a U40 syringe into a skin tent which I can only manage on her right shoulder because I’m right-handed. Lately, about 1 in 10 shots are fur shots; she jumps and squirms away. As a result, I don’t know if I can trust my spreadsheet (see in signature), which has some variability that makes dosing adjustment difficult.

Do you guys have any tips? I guess I could try wrapping her up in a towel, but I’m not sure how that would work because I’d be covering theinjection site. Not sure what I’m doing wrong, butI’m very frustrated and feel like I’m failing at this.

 

I answered on your ProZinc thread.
