I was trying to explain it to Casey last night. Yvonne was chuckling. It went something like this:
Hey Casey...
That's it... Nibble on that lettuce... But you know what's even better than lettuce? Duck food! OK, Casey, you actually have to swallow the piece of lettuce, not just chew it a couple times... Here you go... GOOD GIRL! Bet that tastes really good... You know what would go really good with that??? Some Duck food!... You know your meds are all done now right? So if you eat Duck Food on your own, I won't have to give you any more of those syringes you don't like... That's it, drink up. Now follow it up with some Duck food... No... You're just going to nibble on that piece of lettuce huh? Nice poop! Hey, that means you have more room for some Duck food...
And so on... She never did eat any so she got the syringe. Poor girl. Of course the whole time I was talking to her, I was using silly voices and Casey was looking at me with one eye, then the other, then both eyes, head high, head low, head tilted (look spider on the ceiling!) She's such a sweetheart.
Yay, Coach!!!
