Hoof conformation and shoeing options. Joint, bone, muscle, and tendon and ligament problems. Neurological, dermatological, and developmental orthopedic causes of lameness. Treatment of conditions specific to the foot, pastern and fetlock, cannon and splint bones, knee, upper foreleg, hock, upper hind leg, and back
