. The horse in health and disease : a text-book pertaining to veterinary science for agricultural students . Horses; Horses. COMMON UNSOUNDNESSES AND VICES 177 If it does not interfere with the worlc of the horse it need not be considered a serious unsoundness. BOWED TENDONS The tendons situated behind the cannon bone, in both the front and hind legs, are subjected to severe strains from violent efforts or sudden jerks. When the injury is pronounced more or less swelling and soreness is present. The swelling usually extends from the knee down to the fetlock, and occasionally even farther. It is always characterized by heat and is often quite painful. A lameness develops in proportion with the severity of the injury. The tendons relax and bulge or bow out. They may not resume their normal position even after the acute inflammation subsides, in which case the bowed condition remains and is considered a permanent unsoundness. Treatment consists in the application of blisters. If these fail to bring results, the parts may be strength- ened by the use of the firing iron. COCKED ANKLE A horse is said to have a cocked ankle when he "knuckles over" at the fetlock joint. This occurs when the slope to the long pastern is rendered less obhque and the bone assumes a more upright position than normally. Close examination shows inability to extend the joint to the usual degree. It is a deformity caused by structural changes in the tendons and ligaments about the joint. Fig. 50.—Cocked ankle. This deformity is also known as "knuckling." from heavy work of all kinds. In young horses it may be the result of weakness in these parts. If the cause of the condition can be found it should be promptly removed. Special shoes with low heels and long toes help in many cases. As in other similar dis- eases, the actual cautery may be given a trial (Fig. 50). 12. Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for
