[RC] Emergency Medical Instructions (was: Permission to treat) - k s swigartHere is what I require from every person whose horse I have in my care, and that I give to every person who has care of my horse. Note that this is instructions to a veterinarian. I takes the person who is handing it to the vet out of the loop. My vet says he wishes ALL horse owners and caretakers had them. Anybody who goes out of town to an endurance ride where they are unreachable and leaves horses behind needs to leve instructions to a vet behind as well (worked GREAT when my horse needed care when _I_ was hospitalized because of an accident at an endurance ride). kat Orange County, Calif.
