Highly recommended syringes
By CR01773 on Nov 21, 2019
These syringes are sturdy and well marked. As a pet owner whose dog was recently diagnosed with diabetes, these make injections and proper needle disposal easy and carefree. We are still trying to regulate our dog’s sugar so this is one less thing to worry about.
