An animal remedy dispensing means (100) is described which has an elongate handle (10) having a longitudinal axis (A), an inlet (14) for receiving a remedy and an outlet aperture (21). The outlet has a central axis (B) which forms an angle (8) of between 0 degrees and 45 degrees with the longitudinal axis (A) of the handle. The dispensing means includes a barrel (11) and a plunger (12) reciprocable within the barrel upon relative movement of the handle and a flow control member (13), the barrel provided with an inlet port in fluid communication with the inlet, and an outlet port in fluid communication with the outlet aperture, wherein a central axis of the barrel and the longitudinal axis of the first handle form an angle of between 70 degrees and 90 degrees. The dispensing means includes a dosage control part (39) which is moveable between a first position wherein the dose dispensed can be adjusted and a second position wherein the dose dispensed cannot be adjusted.
