Re: [RC] [SPAM] Re: [RC] Thumps - ALYCIN HAYESIn the 8 or more cases of Thumps I have observed none made an audible vocal noise other that breathing.

If a horse was noticeably tired and sounding almost like it was hic uping is that thumps? if not any idea what it could be? Pulse was high but horse still wanted to go and visibly seemed fine and after stopping getting off and walking for about 5 minutes and got back on the noise was gone until the heart rate got up again.<br><br>kathy R -SE<br><br>heidi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote:<br><br>>>I've heard that once a horse thumps the first time he is much more <br>>>likely to do it again.
