Well put, Dee!  Just wanted to clarify, however, that the kid convinced a
local treatment vet that the horse was tied up (he wouldn't believe her
until he saw the mare pee coffee-colored, as he was on theverge of leaving,
despite the fact that she had told him that that had happened).  Both ride
vets would have noticed easily, but they were out on trail.  She's a tough
kid, and there are several more starting out that have a lot of potential.
