The proper procedure should have been for the vet to examine her, including a trot-out.  If she was fine, and you felt that she never was "off" from having the shoe and Equibuild come off, then she should have been an RO pull, because you chose not to repair the shoeing problem (or could not at the point that it occurred) and continue on.  If you felt that she was at all "off" from what happened, then you should have told the vet that, and been listed as an RO-L.

One of my lameness pulls, I’ve always wondered if it should have been something else.  Scarlet popped her shoe & Equibuild in the first loop of a rocky ride.  I didn’t have an easyboot with me, so got off and walked her a short cut back to camp to pull.  She wasn’t lame at all, but she would have been if I had continued riding her. The vet put lame on the card after I said I wanted to pull before she went lame.  Was an L right?  I mean she certainly wasn’t lame at that point and since I stopped, she never became lame.
