Sunday at Hog Wild he finished 100 miles Sat/Sun and won BC on Sunday. 6-8 week rehab program and a TENS machine.......... Begin handwalking as soon as visible lameness is gone. Hand walk 2-3 weeks. Ride a the walk 2 weeks Add trot for 2 weeks going from flat to steeper over the period Add canter slowly over the next two weeks. If at any time the horse is off, or there is detectable heat, back up two weeks and move forward again. Alison A.
