"I have found this device the easiest to use and the most effective in getting the job done."

— ouch

"The concept is sound but it is way too short in length. The point of using a pill gun is to get it in the back of the animal’s throat safely, and the short design does not allow this…your hand is just outside the mouth, and with a thrashing cat of dog, one can get a puncture wound by accident."

Bottom Line

Due to its small size and design issues, the JorVet Pet Pill Gun is not recommended for most pet owners. Those looking for a reliable pill dispenser should consider alternatives known for better performance and ease of use.
