Renee has a “sticky stifles” question
My almost one year old filly has bilateral sticky stifles.
X-rays show a "little lip" that the ligament can hang on. I have been advised to increase her exercise. Is there any benefit to joint check in this situation. It is really not a joint problem but a ligament problem.
She is on the just add oats, oats, weight check oil, and red cal mag.

It IS a joint problem actually but typical for all stifle situations. I would highly suggest Joint check. Also a chiropractor. All stifle issue for the most part start in the back.
Thanks for asking Renee!
