Re: [RC] Rider Option - Barbara McCrarySince the horse needed treatment, the pull was not necessarily RO. While you noticed it and called it to vet attention, it still was not technically RO. For lack of a better judgment, I'd call it M. It did not affect his skeletal structure (L), it was not a SF (surface factor), not sure what else it could be.

It wasn't metabolic. It wasn't lameness. Of the 5 possible pull codes (M,L,RO,RO/L,RO/M) - which should it be? johnt (p.s. steph noticed the choke within minutes, Sarah Metcalf cleared it easily. He was sedated during the clearing (nose tube/flush - into the stomache/light flush). It was pretty minor, solid food withheld for 2 hours - he's fine now.) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- John Teeter 208 875 1206 (208 834 2788) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
