  [RC] Post Colic Surgery Questions - Val NicosonI found the following in the Archives but didn't really see any answers... Has anybody had any experience with competing in endurance with a horse that has had colic surgery?
If so, can you tell me the circumstances of the
surgery, about the recovery, did it cause problems,
etc.>>>
My friend's endurance horse is going to be having
colic surgery.  I was curious as to how long the
recovery period is before he can be ridden again.  I
realize this can be different in each individual case
but what is the average time line?  Friend is thinking
he will need to be on pasture rest for 1 year.  Also
the above questions are interesting too.
Curious Novice...
