The importance of proper farriery is obvious. Trimming and shoeing affect not only the
external hoof but the internal foot structures. They also have a direct influence on the limb …

Adherence to basic principles of physiologic horseshoeing are essential in maintaining hoof
health and soundness. Most horses do not require special trimming or shoeing techniques …

This study quantifies both the intended effect of orthopaedic shoeing to decrease the load on
the navicular bone and the eventual undesired effects on gait performance. The …

Highly‐trained dressage horses were studied to test the hypothesis that stride length is
altered independently of stride duration in the transitions between the collected, working …

Objective To evaluate hoof size, shape, and balance as risk factors for catastrophic
musculoskeletal injuries (CMI), including suspensory apparatus failure (SAF) and cannon …

Horseshoe characteristics as possible risk factors for fatal musculoskeletal injury of
Thoroughbred racehorses in: American Journal of Veterinary Research Volume 57 Issue 8 (1996) …

Reasons for performing study: Studies on hoof balance have, so far, only assessed the
effects of strong and relatively unrealistic interventions due to technical limitations of …

Simple Summary This study describes a modified approach for the ultrasound-guided
quadratus lumborum block in dogs. Previous studies carried out in canine cadavers …

Reasons for performing study: There is little insight into the effects of routine farriery on the
internal structures of the distal limb in sound horses. Objectives: To measure the effect of …

In literature, it has been hypothesized that the concussion at impact in the equine forelimb is
larger than that in the hind limb, and therefore, eventually more clinical lameness may …
