[RC] What is proven - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: Diane Roby diane_roby2002@xxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== Keep in mind I did say "unknown origin". If the horse were pulled due to a cut from some sharp rocks that would be a known reason. If you had a metabolic pull because the weather was uncommonly hot and humid and the horse didn't train in those particular conditions, that also would be known. Plus I want the same thing from my mare. She's come up with a stone bruise well after a ride which may or may not be related to a possible issue with foot hardness. Of course it could also have to do with the wet muddy conditions here in OK for the last 4 months or so and some large sized stones on a training ride that was done barefoot. Known conditions. However if she just came up lame for some unknown reason then I'd worry about quality breeding stock. In addition I'd rather buy my next horse than breed for it. Too many chances of not getting what I need. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
