Heard this weekend of a terrible incident where a pony was sedated to be clipped and half an hour later it was dead. it got me wondering whether we sedate horses too easily and without considering what might go wrong. If you take a dog or cat to the vet to be sedated you have to sign a form to say that you accept that there are dangers- perhaps their should be a similar proceedure for horse sedation, it might make people think whether it is co mpletely neccessary.
