That's why I left the last show barn. No quarantine, even though the
horses traveled all teh time, and some were sick/not well. To top it
all off, I cared for a horse and was told she was colicing
(believeable from her symptoms), come to find out she had Rhino. I
infected my 3 horses because I didn't know she was contagious and went
strait from her stall to my horses.

I'm not sure how I'll handle the quarantine thing with Runner and I
traveling so much this year. Star isn't vaccinated for anything except
Rabies and Tetanus because she gets sore feet when we vaccinate.
