Abstract: | Appropriate management of the equine hoof during chronic laminitis varies by protocol and practitioner. Sequential removal of the dorsal hoof wall was examined in-vivo on a laminitic horse at the walk, revealing an increase in solar force under the margin of the distal phalanx as measured through the use of an in-shoe force measuring system. |
