Dave,



What are you basing your advice to do injection every 4 days instead of 3 on? I would like to share this with my vet as he doesn't seem familiar with short tails. I am assuming it has something to do with their lack of movement and thus a longer time for the medicine to circulate through the body? My vet has been using the method Rich described accept he is waiting 5 days for the last injection because he's not open on weekends and wont be in on monday =( hmmm if he had told me this before last appt i could have schedualed for every 4 anyways.. I should have suggested giving the injection myself as well but didnt think of it.
