Gadget to give wormer/sedation or anything in paste form!

[DollyCoblet]

Hi,
I have been told that you can buy a gadget to make giving wormer or in my case for giving sedalin easy, it is a plastic? tube with a hole in the middle that fits like a bit enabling you to get the medication in without the fuss, have searched the net but cant find it!
My farrier suggested it as I have such a fight to administer sedalin for when she is shod, a previous bad experiance means she cant be shod without it, we have got better it used to be injection heavy sedation, so are getting there!
This gadget would be a god send as I am only tiny and she likes to grown to 22hh.
If not many have to concoct one.

I have used a gadget known as 'bread'.

Haha, tried the 'bread' gadget, I got a sniff and a 'Mum do you think im silly look'! Think she is far to clever for her own good.
Cant wait for the easiwormer to arrive just hope it works.

My mare became dangerous whenever you tried to give her sedalin/ calmer she would rear/kick/bite/barge - broke my hand twice. Thrn my YO suggested a tried making her think the syringe was filled with lovely yummy stuff, so for about a month i got a syringe and filled it with a little goldne syrup, i gave her this every day & gradually she became easier & easier to give it to, now she puts her head down & opens her mouth !
