Accepting the fact that we don't know the whole story--but, JUST FOR THE
SAKE OF ACADEMIC INTEREST, assuming the story is true as described, could
the vet be censured by the Board of Veterinary Surgeons?

had

Bradley

> Cathy Lowe and her 72 year old mother, Margaret Toth, said they watched in

> circle driveways to turn around.

> Ms. Lowe said the mare was digging her hooves in and pulling back against

roadway.

> Mrs. Toth said blood was "spraying from the horse's feet, and she had a

loose

hours

> The horse reared and tried to strike the man when he got near it, she
said.

horse,

> Clinkenbeard said he has sent a letter to Stuart's office stating that he
