✨ Rocky's Success Story✨

"How can we possibly express our gratitude for literally saving the life of our sweet boy? Rocky, 19 years old, sustained a severe SDFT injury, and with his history of Cushings and laminitis, our vet warned us that recovery would be extremely difficult, if not impossible.

To now see him back out in the field with his friends is nothing short of a dream come true.​

​We found EqueStride shortly after the injury, and they were incredible from the very beginning. Andrew Daly, inventor and founder, provided clear instructions on how to fit the device, followed by regular support calls every other week with one of their brilliant vets, Gloria. Rocky made steady progress throughout, and we genuinely believe we wouldn’t be where we are today without their guidance and the device itself.

​I wholeheartedly recommend EqueStride to anyone facing a similar challenge. Thank you for helping Rocky reclaim his life, we’ll never forget it."

🔎 How to Assess the Severity of a Tendon Injury in Horses: Part 4

🔴 Severe Tendon Injury or Rupture

➡️ Ultrasound Findings:
- Damage: 50–100% of CSA
- Major fibre disruption or full rupture

➡️ Clinical Signs:
- Often non-weight-bearing lameness
- Severe swelling, heat and obvious pain
- Common “bowed tendon” appearance
- Often caused by sudden overload, trauma, or overuse.

➡️ Prognosis:
- Poor prognosis to return to previous level of athletic function
- Exercise-based rehabilitation provided by EqueStride Tendon Support System can significantly shorten the rehabilitation time and improve fibre alignment, which contributes to a better quality of heal, improving the prognosis for returning to athletic function
