New research investigates how different horseshoes and surfaces influence hoof motion in galloping racehorses
New research from the Royal Veterinary College (RVC) examining the impact of different horseshoes and surfaces on hoof kinematics in galloping racehorses has been published in Animals, a leading veterinary science magazine. The findings from the research could help lower the risk of musculo-skeletal injuries, optimise gait quality and improve performance in galloping racehorses, during both training and racing. -
The RVC invites dog owners to participate in the largest study of autoimmune diseases ever conducted
The Royal Veterinary College (RVC) is calling for owners of dogs in the UK with autoimmune diseases to take part in a vital piece of new research, which aims to gather data and insight into the diagnosis, treatment response and outcomes of these dogs. This information will then be shared with local veterinary practices and specialist hospitals to help owners and vets make well-informed decisions when dogs are diagnosed with one of these conditions.The Royal Veterinary College (RVC) is calling for owners of dogs in the UK with autoimmune diseases …
