  [RC] Help with administering electrolytes - Naomi PrestonI have a mare that has now decided to not accept a syringe in the 
mouth for electrolytes.  (Princess syndrome!)  Her teeth have 
been recently done, mouth examined,  seems to be just a behavior 
issue.  I have been riding without electrolytes successfully (much to 
my pleasant surprise) but now that we're doing 100's I would like to be 
able to give some occasionally.  Anyone have any alternate ways 
of giving elytes, or training ideas that I might use?  I do TEAM 
mouthwork on her and she loves it, but rears and gets ugly when a syringe 
approaches.    
Thanks! 
Naomi
