Re: [RC] Horse with Dropped Fetlocks (Not Endurance) - RDCARRIE

I know there's a problem that can affect horses involving degenerative changes in the suspensories that can cause the problems you mention.  I think it *usually* affects older horses, but I can't remember for sure.  I might be wrong about the age link, or perhaps this horse is older than 12.  I can't remember the exact name of the problem right now.  But I rememer seeing some websites about it.  Progressive suspensory degeneration?  Something like that.
