Re: RC: Another LD vet check question

Annette,
It may be that they were just used to people trying to get through as 
quickly as possible. But if the vets weren't busy right then, it would have 
helped ride management for you to vet on through in case another group rode 
in just as you decided you were ready.
It is also easier to keep track of people that way. And, even though you had 
met the pulse criteria, there is still a time limit by which your horse must 
pass the ENTIRE vet exam. (Usually 30 min, sometimes 20). Management hates 
to see people get "lost" in the shuffle!!
