As a person working with and treating canker hooves daily at a draft rescue, it was very education to get a view of what canker does to the interior of the hoof capsule. Thanks!

Hello! How do you treat hoof canker?

As with my previous videos on hoof dissection - HORSES WERE NOT KILLED TO MAKE THIS VIDEO!

@@DrSimonCurtis this might be a more accurate statement because a horse running around on cannon bone nubs might have a different opinion!😂 Seriously though, thank you for helping educate the horse community. It's sad that these horses died, but it is nice that they can be used to teach others about issues that might save their lives.❤

I agree. Thank you Arya.

I had no idea of the damage that canker does to a horse. Would I be right in thinking that the condition was so severe that really there was no way back for this horse?

@dshe8637 Ай бұрын

This is fascinating. I hadn't appreciated how deep and destructive the condition can be until seeing this dissection. The transformation of firm tissue into flabby mush is incredible. The structure of the normal hoof with its layers, fibres and protective capsule, seem to be a perfect place to nurture this awful condition. Is there some kind of grading system or criteria that enables vets and farriers to know whether a hoof is recoverable? Or do you just start treatment and see how recovery goes?

One of the main reasons I'm reluctant to adopt a draft. Great vid, tyvm❤

Sadly, it’s not just draft horses that suffer this problem

@@samgeller1967 right but it seems to happen to draft and draft crosses more often sadly

Shocked how bad it can get

Poor creature, that dead tissue basically ate up almost the whole hoof. Glad it's not suffering anymore

Thanks for sharing this. The damage is quite remarkable. The little fingers of material within the diseased tissue looked a little like eponychium on the video, any similarity up close?

The poor creature the hooves belonged to suffered a long time.

Dr. Curtis may I ask what the signalment of this particular horse was if it was known?

Esas patas con cancer de ranilla es de un caballo q murio de esa enfermedad

@DrSimonCurtis 6 ай бұрын

Sí, lamentablemente el caballo murió. El propietario proporcionó las piernas del cadáver porque quería entender la causa y lo que había sucedido. Estábamos felices de investigar.
