Re: [RC] Hide the Horse Food - Steven ProeHi: A critter can become excited see the ready food and thus raise its P&R's or even worse it may eat prior to being vetted and this may cause the P&R's to rise as a part of the digestive process and seeing, smelling their favorite treats. If the critter eats it may not be possible to lower the P&R's in a timely manner. 1. Loosen or remove tack. 2.Drink water at any time. 3. Let wiz or poop at any time. 4. after vetting and receiving a good or OK from ride management or vet. 5. Eat all the food that there is available or in reach "aka Smokey Killen".
