I know everyone will have a bit of personal preference on this, but what do you think is a BETTER therapy for a horse with fusing hocks?
BOT hock wraps? Or PHT hock wraps?
As an FYI, I did already inject his hocks (can't believe the amazing difference!) and started him on Adequan. Already feed Platinum Performance CJ. Just looking at anything else I can do for him.

I have both but use my BOT more than my PHT on my mare with bad hocks.
My old horse I stick with PHT because be just didn't seem happy in the BOT.
Just remember you aren't suppose to use BOT right after injections. I think it's a week, but someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I have never heard that before. Why is that?
I don't know the reason but I think I remember reading it in one of the inserts that came with my hock boots, and My vet also told me to wait to use then after he injected my mare a week ago. Maybe a BOT rep will see this thread and be able to answer why.
