I have a beautifully talented head horse that was diagnosed with a stress fracture in his left hock in August, I was wondering if anyone had advice a treatment options aside from stall rest, he's going crazy in his stall. Also, has anyone out there used a product called Rapid Response?

Thanks!

Welcome Dawn,
We have information on how to manage horses on stall rest at Training & Conditioning Horses » Behavioral Problems » Stall Resting Horses. Rapid Response has been recently discussed on these boards and by running a search you should find more.

Yes, use the discussion search engine and search on rapid response. Choose the AND method and choose WHOLE WORD method. I get a lot of hits doing this.
