Haven't had to do a hot ride yet on this horse, but I know it's coming. I'm thinking pre-loaded applesauce syringes in my saddle bags.

Karen Chaton's blog talked about salty water at vet checks too.Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16627065628317652042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1780912362953300892.post-69750385948524497962009-03-04T12:51:00.000-07:002009-03-04T12:51:00.000-07:00Yes, there was.

My legs sort of stuck to my horse and the skin pulled across. It hurt!<BR/><BR/>Great thoughts, though!ellesceehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16808681799139011365noreply@blogger.com
