In Chapter 3, lameness consultant and performance specialist Dr. Sue Dyson joins Gillian Higgins to uncover the stories bones can tell. They explore bony changes caused by bits, as well as common equine issues such as arthritis, neck pain, ECVM, navicular disease, kissing spines, congenital abnormalities, and hock problems. The discussion also highlights the importance of strengthening, how to assess your horse’s back, and practical methods for improving equine well-being.
