http://eaglesnestranch.blogspot.com/2011/12/myster-of-stringhalt.html
Friday, December 2, 2011. The Myster of Stringhalt. Veterinarian Carolyn R. Simmelink explains what is behind a condition that makes it difficult for a horse to control his hind legs. Treatment is surgical and involves removing a portion of the lateral digital extensor muscle and tendon to restore a more normal gait.

Friday, December 2, 2011. We are glad to get this old guy - but he does have some baggage. We think he has Stringhalt. We will post an article on this disease.
