Re: [RC] Surgar in Beet Pulp/ Laminitis Scare - heidiYou sound like every other equine prognosticator, scare the hell out of them first then explain it's just very few horses that are affected.. Jaye I thought she made it clear that her recommendation was for a select group of equines - more than once in her narrative. Give the readers some credit to make their own conclusions without fear. She also made it exceedingly clear that this was likely a rarity and that she was looking into this further. We-the-endurance-public are not so stupid as to think that this was a scare tactic. Rather, it was an admission of an anomaly that needs to be looked into further. Personally, I appreciate the honesty. And Jaye, it is an insult to our intelligence to insinuate that in light of Susan's honesty about finding this odd batch of beet pulp, we would all run screaming to the feed room to flush our beet pulp down the toilet in fear. We are capable of taking it for what it was worth--a report of an odd finding, which has not yet been quantified, and is under further review. Heidi (far from scared by Susan's post--and in fact went out afterward and fed the same old beet pulp to the three on the place that get it, just like every other day... As I suspect most on the list did.) ============================================================ The only thing worse than crewing for a female Endurance rider is crewing ~ ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
