This is such a great article! Thank you 🙂
I was reading about a girth and girth sleeve that is supposed to help you detect lameness in your horse immediately? They’re on Kickstarter at the moment: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/447570149/seaver-the-first-connected-equipment-for-horses
Has any one else heard of this? Does anybody know any other products that can help detect lameness as soon as it occurs?

Good advice. Treating my 14-yo’s first hoof abscess this year, wanted to read up more to brush up on my knowledge. He’s had a couple of good “twist” injuries in the past due to his excitable nature and high spirits, an accident with a barn manager and an icy stall that led to surgery on a back heel bulb/hoof, “appaloosa” feet, and a bad farrier trim that I’ve all had to treat and learn about as I went along. I’m also working on equine massage, and seeing how gentle stretching before and after lunging and a ride can improve a horse’s mobility. Many thanks for this class; it’ll keep me up to date.
