Re: [RC] LD BC - merrybenActually the vets say that it is hard to judge BC for LD because the horses look mostly the same. And mostly is it not the vets, it is the RM's who make the decisions. -----Original Message----- From: heidi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To: Diane Trefethen <tref@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: ridecamp <ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thu, 01 Dec 2005 07:58:34 -0700 Subject: RE: [RC] LD BC > > Heidi was referring to West region vets not giving AERC LD BC.

RMs in the West region have reported that vets that Jeanne listed have told them that it takes far too much time to judge LD BC. And that means ANY LD BC. I believe that Melissa has suggested alternative forms of BC for LD--but there are indeed vets in the West region who refuse to judge any form of LD BC at all.
