Case Study #1: DDFT Tears and Navicular Bone Damage

This episode is the lameness history and rehab strategies for my own personal gelding, Vinnie. A BLM Mustang, Vinnie has a history of navicular bone damage, bilateral front lameness, DDFT tears, as well as other pathology in the caudal hoof, and hock arthritis. In this episode, I speak with various farriers, veterinarians, and friends that have seen his rehab journey over the last six years. 

Also featured in this episode: Dr. Sara Cook (Black Brook Veterinary Services, Massachusetts), Dr. Jose Garcia (Tufts Large Animal Hospital, Massachusetts), Pete Ramey, Beth Lewis, June O’Brien, Casey Sexton, and Cindy Conquest.
