not sure what good it did but turns out my "hysteria" saved the applaloosa sunday... she took him to two vets and both said he has anhydrosis and both said he would have most likely dropped dead if ridden another 2.5 hours. One in fact said he should never be ridden again unless he starts sweating. They prescribed stuff etc. This is very sad! He is a gorgeous healthy horse! both vets said its onset was probably from a previous episode of being severely overheated. One vet said he has seen a lot of this locally since the heat wave this summer. it is very sad. the lady called and thanked me. Janice
