Re: [RC] Since we are on the subject of water - Cynthia Eyler
I was on a horsecamping trip with a group of people
who like to ride long and somewhat fast (gaited horses, mostly). Some
of them told me that they will not let their horses drink out of puddles because
they say they know someone who's horse was poisoned by doing so. When I
asked them, "But what if puddles are all there is?" their response was that the
horses will just have to wait to drink.
Also found out during the trip that some of
them don't hang hay in the trailer when they're traveling -- and it took us
five hours to get to the campground! Why? Because it makes a mess in
the trailer.
Arrrrrrrgh.

turns out that many people that show an do a little trail riding "don't
like their horses drinking that icky water" so the don't let them, push
them on when the try and teach them not to
drink.>>
