But you have to understand that we are desperate out here! There are so few people that have seen many navicular horses. Here are my burning questions. They are general in nature though. As you see a horse recover do you begin under saddle exercise at the gait that they are sound in. Ex. if they are sound at the walk do you walk them under saddle even if they are not completely sound at trot? Do you give any palliative drugs such as bute or Adequan as you progress through recovery? How long (in general) is it for horses to recover...months? years? You may not be able to answer these questions but maybe you could include some answers in your next book. I just looked yesterday and your current book is not available yet at Amazon. I can't wait to order it. Thanks!Ligedahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10884751678444955199noreply@blogger.com
