Re: RC: ride vetting

>Yes, this is a can of worms. Where do we go from here?

I wrote to a few BOD members voicing how I felt on the subject.  Perhaps 
that would be a good starting point?  If we as members tell the BOD that we 
want more clarification of what "veterinarian" means in the rulebook, then 
they should make it so.

I for one would like to see a veterinarian who is not only licensed, but is 
equipped and able (and hopefully experienced) to treat horses should it be 
necessary at every sanctioned event.  I don't think that is too much to 
ask.  Granted, most rides don't end up with horses being treated but 
accidents happen that aren't even ride related (just ask Rocky!!).


Happy Trails,
