Hello all, I'm an infrequent visitor to these parts as I am currently (and have been for a very long time!) horse-less.

I am hoping that one of you can help me out. I am currently studying a distance learning equine degree and have an anatomy and physiology report due in January. One of our tasks is to collate the results of a week's worth of temperature, pulse and respiration for two horses and examine the results.

As I am horse-less it is very difficult for me to get access to two horses to get the necessary information. My sister-in-law is very kindly getting me the details for her horse but I have been let down at the last minute by my second horse-owner and am now in a bit of a pickle as time is running short.

Is anyone out there able/prepared to help me out with this? As I said, all I need are the resting temperature, pulse and respiration rates taken for 7 days, plus some background information on the horse (eg age, breed, current level of fitness, workload, etc).

Ideally I need the results before New Year so that I have a week or two to pull everything together in my report.

Thanks in advance Xmas Grin

I should have added, my asking for these details is in no way cheating on the assignment. The task is to analyse the results, not to demonstrate that we know how to take TPR.
