what are your view on stem cell therapy?....................... As with any treatment, it can be a great benefit or no use whatsoever. I am always willing to try anything to get a horse right but i also accept that not every therapy works on every condition

do you know of anyone who has had stem cell therapy done to their horse? yes

if so ..... OH big hunter had PSD in the hind leg, the vet harvested blood/cells from his dock and sent them off to the lab
was it a success, and is the horse back doing the work it was doing before it was injuried? no as he died from colic while on box rest before he was able to receive the treatment:(

thanks i would be really happy if you could help me as this is part of my college work :) No problem but worth using the spellcheck before submitting your assignment...;)
