Gee, something get under your skin? You did write the Bowed Tendon Book? I
thought it one of the best books I've ever read on the subject. In fact by
following your step by step instructions I was able to avoid the possibility
of more serious problems, treatment which was cryotherapy every 4 hours
through the night,(2 AM icing was the hardest) until a vet could look at
it.A potentially serious problem was averted, I want to personally thank you
for putting out a book that could explain 'just what needs to be done when
you see a problem developing' hour by hour.Which book were you refering to
and where can I retrieve a cumulative of the Trailblazer articles? I
finished Les Miserables in 3 days, I could probably manage a 650 pager. What
I meant when I said she shouldn't let your opinion get to her, was because
when you finish on a strong horse whether you win or not ,it feels like
winning. You can't know what that feels like, you don't ride. And yes I have
finished in first on a stong mount and also finished on a strong mount not
in first, when you are in sync even further back and you know you and your
horse did your best and had a good strong ride its like no other feeling in
this world. As far as knowledge of the horse, you are king.
