TREATMENT FOR BLIND SPAVIN 



Treat and shoe the same as for a bone spavin, — only extend 

 the application well down over the front and to both sides of the 

 lower joint of the hock. 



TREATMENT FOR BLOOD SPAVIN 

 ^ Follow the treatment and shoeing as given for bone spavin. 

 TREATMENT FOR BOG SPAVIN 



Same treatment and shoeing as for bone spavin. 



If the bog spavin can be pushed through to the outside by 

 manipulation and pressui*e, or if there are enlargements, in the 

 hollows at the back of joint treat as for thoroughpin. 

 TREATMENT FOR THOROUGHPIN 



Apply Save-the-Horse as directed on the bottle over and 

 around the enlargement in the hollow, and to the opposite side 

 even though the enlargement shows on one side only ; also treat 

 any swelling on the front of hock. 



In the treatment of thoroughpin the angle of the foot and hock 

 should not be lost sight of as these are very important in re- 

 lieving pressure from an inflamed and weakened joint. This 

 may be accomplished in the following manner : The foot should 

 be made level, the toe calk low and long with heel calks raised 

 so that they are at least % inch hig^her than the toe. 



If the foot is shod in this way and shoe reset frequently, every 

 three weeks if possible, it will favorably supplement and greatly 

 increase the action of the remedy. 

 TREATMENT FOR WIND GALLS OR WIND PUFFS 



The foot should be kept level and calks low. 



Apply Save-the-Horse as directed on the bottle. 



Should there be inflammation and fever or the horse go lame 

 and sore the treatment should be made as directed for Filled 

 Tendons ; this method will hasten results and be a saving of the 

 preparation. 



Frequently the cause of lameness is below and in the sesamoid 

 bones. With the hand closely feel along down the sides at the 

 back of the ankle, manipulating and pressing, especially on the 

 under parts at the back of the ankle, for any thickening or filling. 

 If any exists or the pressure evinces pain, treatment should be 

 extended accordingly and the method as directed for Filled 

 Tendons followed. 



WHEN TREATING STALLIONS 



Always bandage an injured, weak or swollen hock, ankle oi 

 tendon of hind leg when siallion is serving, to aid in support- 

 ing and to prevent etrainiug^of affected part, (Se« page 26 

 for method of bandaging.) ^.
