I've had great results with an incline treadmill. I used to have the time to ride day in and day out on the ranch and when I did I never had this issue. (We had lots of hills and fences.) I was going to send the colt I had in training last year to an aquatred. I talked with Jeff Petska and he recommended it over the aquatred (which he has).  Again, this is for a horse that has UFP not a bony lesion.

kwanatha - 2013-12-24 9:16 AM for those that inject... how long did it last?
That all depends on the individuals circumstances.  
6-8 weeks when I was running her.  I was having legend and vetalog put in. 

I was advised by the surgeon to have her injected with Legend 4 weeks post surgery so I just had that done last Friday. 

So far so good!
ya I did all that along with adequan and platinum cj. the surgery went great and the post op pics look great. Glad you went right in and got the surgery instead of making things worse I look forward to hearing great news about yours!



we just can't get him to quit sticking without him being on the superhorse program and quite frankly he scares the crap outa me when he is that crazy fit LOL
For catching, I get the ligament blistered internally. It doesn't damage the joint like injecting because it only goes into the ligament and tightens it...not into the joint. Injections don't really help catching....they just help with inflammation caused by catching.

we did that more than once even did perforation of the ligament surgery and it is quite thickened. He just has to be crazy fit or he sticks

How funny you posted this. I recently got a screaming deal on an older incline treadmill.It didn't work right and my amazing husband fixed it perfect with $18 in parts LOL

Even though he is the champ at the aquatred, I haven't got him broke to the incline yet. He is too fresh right now as he has been off since first week of August. I put him on it and he was a little nervous. when we turned it on he squatted as he walked LOL I was going to send him back to aquatred to get him fit and get him into the grove of walking on a belt again and use the incline to keep him shape inbetween sessions.

Thanks for your post you give me hope again and on Christmas Day what a gift

I have a incline treadmill,for my stifle mare but in the end she just had a lot wrong with her stifle and my husband was very sick also i just retired her and bred her and now i have a carbon copy with chrome. So if anyone needs a inclinde treadmill, i am in virginia and be willing to,sell it. Another problem i had my barn was not big enough to put my horse in it and turn on.
