[RC] Penicillan shots for Horses - k s swigart

Val Nicoson said:


She wants me to give the shot tomorrow as she will be
out of town.  The horse belongs to a mutual friend of
ours who is a green owner and doesn't like to give
shots.


This is probably going to come out sounding kinda hard-nosed, but all I
can say is that if you have to ask an internet mailing list how to
properly give these shots, you do NOT have enough expertise to be giving
them to somebody else's horse.

If the owner is unable to give the shots him/herself, and you are
willing to take on the risk of performing veterinary treatment on
somebody else's horse, the people you need to be asking this question of
are the horse's owner and the vet that saw the horse and prescribed the
medication so that THEY can evaluate your level of expertise in
administering the shots and decide whether to take the risk of having
you do it. :)

Ridecamp is NOT the right place to get the answer to that question.
