Vet Check for Jaliska

Posted by on December 20, 2011

What is that contraption and what is
she going to do with it?!

Well the mystery behind Jaliska switching her hind legs in canter is solved. The vet checked her today and apparently she has a sore back. Go figure.

The vet administers pulsating shock waves (a treatment commonly used on injured Grand Prix horses), gives her a chiropractic adjustment and shows me a stretching routine to do with her. Within a week she is practically as good as new.

The moral of the story is: If you think there is something wrong with your horse you are probably right.

Next time I will get Jaliska checked straight away.

 

The vet administers shock wave treatment for J’s sore back.

The “carrot stretch” will keep Jaliska’s neck flexible.
