Mounted search and rescue

["LAURI STRUVE" <lauris10@earthlink.net>]

Well, let's see. I pay $350/rent, which includes the horse and myself, don't 
know the breakdown, having him right out the back door... priceless. Farrier 
costs range from $65 for new with borium to $45 for resets, and $20 for 
trims, my previous farrier was $70 a shot, new and reset, $30/trim. Feed: I 
pay $2/bale for small squares of mixed grass hay, feed 1# of omolene a day 
because my mount needs Thyro-L, otherwise would be straight hay and pasture, 
So the meds, $30/mo, the feed I think $14/bag. In summer I ad horseshoers' 
secret hoof supplement, $23/tub. Vet visits vary, shots are generally 
$150-200, don't do my own, and the vet may start requesting combat pay. (Any 
advice on making a horse a good patient appreciated off list) Saddle, I ride 
a Circle Y Arab equitation saddle for everything, fits both of us to a T. 
Bit, used to use a nice myler, but after a tack malfunction on a pleasure 
trail ride, and finishing in a halter and reins with no issues... switched to 
a full cheek snaffle and haven't looked back. Equipment I carry with me: 
multi-tool, duct tape, old tshirt, vetwrap, variety of first aid items for 
bleeding, pain and stings, power food for me, treat or 2 for horse, water, 
matches, whistle, extra compass, batteries for GPS, GPS, radio, cell phone, 
and a few other miscellaneous items.

Hi Kathie,

The post to which you are replying is on a list named MSAR-Riders,
which is a general discussion list for MSAR.

The list that is dedicated to working on MSAR standards is named
MSAR-ASTM.

Hope this helps,
