ABSTRACT:
Animal hoof growth is accelerated by the administration of a compound having somatotropin-like activity or a compound which causes the secretion of somatotropin in the animal. The method is applicable to any situation in which increased hoof growth is desired. A particularly important application of this method relates to the treatment of cracked hooves, wherein an animal having a cracked hoof is treated with somatotropin in order to reduce the recovery time from the injury.
