[Video] How To Affect The Equine Fetlock Joint (Part 1)
The fetlock joint is an incredible part of equine anatomy. Lameness that involves this joint is a common challenge for footcare professionals to address. In this presentation, Mitch Taylor, owner and operator of the Kentucky Horseshoeing School in Richmond, Ky., will survey the anatomy of the fetlock joint and surrounding structures.
As Taylor performs the anatomical review, Dr. Jenny Hagen of the Equine Locomotor System and Hoof Orthopaedics at Leipzig University’s Institute of Veterinary Anatomy will present results from a study of the relationship between toe conformation and fetlock joint angle, as well as the effect of different wedges on internal structures associated with the fetlock joint.
