paws inside.


I think it's probally because he HATES the taste of the stuff. Mine
will paw at the syringe and my hand. I have to make sure they
swallow all of it. They will shake their heads so hard it gets
everywhere. Me, the walls, floor..... Then when they are put down,
the will make repeated shakes, excessive lickes with the tounge, and
rub their faces on the rug.
