I responded that just because he was old doesn't mean he was aware of the new techniques and knowledge I had just learned. This dynamic remains unchanged, and it seems just as misguided now as it did back then. I now realize that, while horses haven't changed much over the thousands of years they have coexisted with humans, our approach to their care has evolved significantly. I often turn to the wisdom of my elders to deepen my understanding of modern horse veterinary care. One of my key mentors in this area is my friend, Dr. James Belden. He returns for the third time to share his invaluable insights from decades of work with horses. Just because Dr. Belden has been a veterinarian for over 65 years doesn't mean he isn't up to date with today's research. He is truly brilliant and will impress you with his current knowledge on many horse-related topics. I am grateful for this Thanksgiving holiday tradition of spending time with Dr. Belden. I'm thankful you're carving out a spot in your busy lives to listen to this replay. 2 minutes 11 seconds - [Deep Digital Flexor Tendon injury and diarrhea] I would love a fresh perspective on rehabbing a DDFT injury.
