My 6 yr old has just been diagnosed with Bone Spavins in the lower 2 joints of his hocks after xrays and nerve blocks.
I have been advised to give him a month off (after painkilling jabs to hocks), then he will have more jabs to his hocks followed by daily exercise to encourage then to fuse...
Ive had horses in Hampshire for 15 years, been through several saddlers who I would not recommend. I use Susan Slade (just out of hampshire in west sussex), all 6 horses have good fitting saddles now, she was also recommended by the horse physio I used.
