I was kidding. A little humor in my distress. Any damage that is to be done, is done. I may never need to use this again, but if I do, the back of the head is the place it will go. But I am a stickler for directions, and I read OVER and OVER, between the shoulders, I needed to believe them. And you know what, out of the 13, only my normal "hiders" (read: Willow and Fern) actually ran away to hide. The others could care less.......except that several had the need to lick the spot.
Keep the encouraging words coming, though, I am still worried about a reaction to licking.
