The Stifle

This week we look at the largest and most complex joint in a horse's body, the stifle. n What makes it up? Why does it have 'problems', and why is it so difficult to diagnose?

Thank you, Fred was my daughters eventing horse - now retired :)

Thank you SO much for these videos! I feel like so many videos out there on topics like these just graze the surface but never go into detail. Every time I see a video of yours, I know I'm in for some good information that I won't find in the first google search result!

[@CazedarnesEquestrian]

You're so welcome! Thank you for such lovely feedback :)

Thank you for the great video on the passive stay apparatus and the reciprocal apparatus. I am a vet tech student learning this very subject now and your video had great detail into both of these. Plus your chalk drawings were awesome and easily understandable. Thanks to Fred the horse for being a good model!
