Bone Spurs

Postby JimP » Thu Jan 20, 2005 5:54 pm

Hi Guys,

I have a just turned 3 year old filly at the breakers right now. She has come up lame at a gallop but fine when walking. Exrays have revealed bone spurs on the hock. What can you tell me about this condition and the treatments if there are any current ones.
