I've considered trying to trick a vet into giving me the one they give dogs (that was originally developed and used for humans but taken off the market for total bullshit reasons) but easier said than done.

"My dog is very sensitive, please set the syringe here..."

"Sir, this is your own arm."

"Whaaaatt?! Really?!! Hahahaha, how could that happen hahahh. Now do it."
