1083.0. "Pools for Horses???" by DASXPS::SLADE () Wed Oct 04 1989 18:59

    
    
    	Hi-
    
    	Does anyone out there have information on a pool for
    	horses??  I know the track uses them alot but they 
    	send their horses out.  What I would like to know is
    	where can you purchase one?, about how much is the cost?
    	How big are they?  How do you walk the horse through.
    	The barn I am boarding at would like as much information 
    	as possible about this.  
    
    
    	Thanks in advance for any replies!

1083.1Try this...HYEND::RUSSAUThu Dec 21 1989 19:4814
    
    	Zina --
    
    	You might try contacting Tufts vets school in Grafton, MA.
    	I'm pretty sure they have a pool for horses there.  If they
    	don't, try Cornell vet school in Rochester, NY.  Then you
    	could contact the manufacturer to get all the info.
    
    	It would be interesting if you posted the information
    	you get here in the notesfile for us not-so-privledged!!
    
    	Good luck.  Hope this helps.

1083.2Rochester has one....DELNI::KEIRANFri Dec 22 1989 11:105
    Rochester Equine Clinic in Rochester NH has a pool.  Its been
    a couple years since I've been there, but I think the horses walk
    down a ramp to get in it.  As far as cost goes, I'm sure they are
    expensive considering you would most likely want it indoors for
    year round use.
