Heidi was referring to West region vets not giving AERC
LD BC. Sorry if you misunderstood that. Yes, the vets/RMs will often have a
'Horse Excellence' award, but as several have already explained if AERC
forms at not used, it just ain't a AERC LD BC.
You want names? Look at any EN or any Year book - it's
there in black & white which rides in the West and Pacific South regions
don't give LD BC - Melissa Ribley, Nancy Elliot, Michele Rousch, Dave Nicholson,
etc. just to name a few. They are all great vets. I know Melissa and
Nancy personally, think the world of them, but they don't give LD BC. Melissa
Ribley even wrote a letter which was posted in EN a few months ago
about not giving AERC LD BC.
