I want to express my sincere thanks to Esco for giving a spectacular clinic here in Sacramento. I also want to send out a big "thank you" to the great group of attendees. Everyone came eager to learn and as a result, no one left disappointed. The folks at the Horseshoe Barn were great as usual. Thanks for opening your doors to us. I also want to express thanks to Larkin Green, of Vettec, who hung out with us on Saturday, and to all those who supplied us with great clinic horses. Once again, Thank You Esco for generously sharing your knowledge and experience with LLD and for helping us all to see the whole horse.
