About this program
The hind fetlock launches every stride: it sinks under the push-off load and springs back thousands of times a day. Hard work and uneven ground add up in this joint quietly.
Consider this program when:
- the hind fetlocks are stiff after hard work
- uneven or deep going has loaded the hind legs
- an older horse's hind fetlocks sink lower than they used to
- routine care for the push-off joints in sport work
One treatment covers the hind fetlock with its supporting return. New heat, swelling or lameness is the vet's question first.
