Hi Kathy,

Since no one else responded I'll drop my 2 cents worth.  If you try to vet in 
with one leg bandaged, the vet will probably want to see what's under the 
bandage.  Maybe not, but probably.  So vet in without the bandage and tell the 
vet that you will be riding with a bandage on the leg with the cut so the vet 
secretary can note that on your card.  Then ride with it on.  When you present 
for your completion exam, hand the vet your card and ask if you can leave the 
bandage on.  The vet may say yes or may say no.  However, if you are going to 
show for a best condition award, you will need to remove the bandage just as 
you'd be expected to remove splint boots so the vet can thoroughly examine the 
leg.  After you're through, re-bandage.
