[Ag-eq] quiet list and a question about blind horse trainers

[Aleeha Dudley]

Hello All,
  Wow, has this list been quiet.  I'm going to start a topic that 
may be controversial for some, but we'll see where it leads since 
we are all interested in the same sort of field: agriculture.
  I am in the midst of my sophomore year in college, currently 
studying zoology in hopes of becoming a blind veterinarian.  I 
was wondering if any of you are or know someone who is a blind 
horse trainer? I am trying to figure out how you interpret 
signals and possibly dangerous situations while working with your 
horses.  This would also apply if you work with other large 
animals.
  I am also wondering if anyone has tried to pursue or knows 
someone who has tried to pursue a career in veterinary medicine 
or other agricultural fields that have to do with animals.
  Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
