Uncle Mo diagnosis

I don't care to see people slam the professional reputation of Dr. Doug Byars on a public internet list. So what are your bonafides to say so, and call this well-respected DVM a liar?

From today's release on the Bloodhorse website

Elliot Walden:
"He just started getting dapples this week. He's starting to feel good. When he first got here, he wouldn't run much at all. His appetite has been great. He's on no medications at all and has gained 10% of his body weight back."

Dr. Doug Byars:
"He's being treated with nothing and is responding very well."

Where was the word antibiotics used by either gentleman.

Also, your refusal to address Andy's question properly is both comical and sad at the same time.

Try reading previous articles on Uncle Mo, where Dr. Byars said he was on antibiotics.

Also, not as comical and sad as you publicly calling Dr. Byars a liar, because your vast medical knowledge of cholangiohepatitis is from an invoice, where you mistakenly think Trental was an antibiotic.

Glad to have you back. Maybe you will finally answer Andy's question. I really wouldn't care where or if you work but you come across as an arrogant know-it-all and I think it would be relevant to know what your credentials are if we are all going to listen to your disertation on cholangiohepatitis and how it may or may not affect the racing career of Uncle Mo.

I have already admitted that all I know about the subject is what I learned when one of my horses had the condition. I suspect it may be a heck of alot more than you may know since I sincerely doubt you have any experience with animals larger than a hamster.

And yes, if Byars really meant the horse is not on ANY medication, then he is lying.

That's funny. I thought arrogant know-it-all is precisely descriptive of you, too. Did you bother to read the previous articles on Uncle Mo, where it was said he was on antibiotics? Or are you sticking with arrogant ignorance?

Guess it depends upon one's view.

You are really hung up on me calling Dr. Byars a liar. Just for the record, I'm also claiming Elliot Walden has not told the truth either. I know it sounds crazy but people in this business do tell fibs from time to time, shocking as it may seem. Just ask Barry Irwin.

Still waiting for an answer to Andy's question.

Arrogant ignorance it is, then

Yes, I take offense at cowardly people using the anomonity of the internet to call real, well-respected, accomplished people in my profession liars.

I know it sounds crazy but people in this business do tell fibs from time to time, shocking as it may seem. Just ask Barry Irwin.

You're not up on the latest. It's that the pictures and video on BloodHorse are not of Uncle Mo, it's of a fake horse pretending to be Uncle Mo!

I'm not sure I understand what the **** you are talking about. Is this the same defense used by Congressman Wiener. You seriously need help.

Now is not the time. Wait until Saturday, sometime between 5:30 and 7pm. Preferably on camera.
