Thanks Tim! It's encouraging to see people taking care of their animals!

[@donnac.1609]

Great info! I had a QH filly that had stifle issues.....she was pastured at a friend's place and go cast between some rocks. Both hind legs had issues. I'm glad you were able to catch this as quickly as you did!

I'm glad that this isn't something that can't be fixed.
Trigger is one of my favorites, and I'm glad that he's going to be ok.
A great added benefit to filming these training sessions for YT, as it gave you the ability to see something that you didn't feel from the saddle.
Thanks Tim!

Yes videoing your riding is very beneficial in many ways.

Happens with gaited horses, also. My vet clipped one of the tendons on each side that locked up and within a week we were back to showing successfully!!😊

Amazing he stands like that for you. The strength … he could break that tether easily. Amazing nature

Luxating patella is common in dogs of all types. The ligaments are either stretched or torn. With dogs it is often the result the joints being too shallow where the bones meet. The vets reconstruct the joint, followed by rehab. Problem with dogs is this usually is in both stifles and both need surgery.

[@timandersonhorsetraining]

Sounds like it's a much more serious problem with dogs than with horses.

[@DoubleDogDare54]

@@timandersonhorsetraining The surgery is significant and expensive. I have three dogs right now and all have bad stifles that have gone out on them, resulting in lameness to the point they can't put the foot down. I take a different approach to treatment and crate them until they get over it on their own. Time will heal it, but it can take months. I don't go the surgical route. But it is very common in dogs, yes.

Thank you for this information Tim!

[@lisaweinberger4197]

Very interesting information. Thank you for sharing

[@kat6109]

What's the Article link you were referring to? Thank you so much for this. I have been trying to get a video of my horse doing this, `but it's so random, its hard to get on footage. 1 day he did it 3-4times lounging and of course stopped when I pull phone out to record. and like this weekend I rode 4 miles on trail and he was perfect, then right before getting to trailer he did it with his better hind leg.

[@twade909]

Thanks Tim. Great you found it early. I have a mare with locking patella issues, would love to learn more about this. Can I please have the link to the article you spoke of

[@bradmetcalf7832]
