[tri-med] Re: Med syringes

The vet gives us 1 ml med syringes for Sophie the five pound pomeranian. She 
has a collapsing trachea and when she starts her funny little ?cough-bark we 
give her .3ml of turbogesic to help the pain and relax her trachea. (We can't 
even have a dog that has no special needs.)

The smallest I use are the 1ml ones. Diabetic 
syringes minus the needle.

What size are you after sweet? The smallest I use are the 1ml ones. Diabetic 
syringes minus the needle. They have a slip tip so you can put them straight 
into the Mic-Key for meds or to use those brilliant little plastic caps to 
draw meds up. We use either BD or Terumo brands. Next size up that I use are 
the 3 ml, then 5ml, 10, 20 and the horse syringes (60 ml). I am more than 
happy to mail you a box.
