Please have your friend have her horse checked for EPM.  Her vet will know
what it is.  (sp) equine protozoa myolitis  I had a mare with string halt
and she could back up just fine.  The fact that her horse couldnt back well
concerns me.   Keep us posted please.  thanks gesa

>Does anyone know if there is any new treatment for stringhalt? A friend of
mine is training a quarter horse that she thinks has stringhalt. He jerks up
both hind legs one is worse and can only back up one or two steps and his
legs don't want to function. She does not think he has a stifle problem. I
couldn't find anything current in the archives. Thanks, Karen
