Description

ABSTRACT:
The horse foreleg brace is a cylindrical framework having hinges along the outside of the brace for opening and closing the cylinder of the leg brace and a restraining means on the other side to keep the brace closed. The top of the brace is an irregular oval, which engages the shoulder of a horse. The brace is a framework of metal rods wherein metal rods forming a circle are spaced at intervals along the vertical axis of the brace and welded to vertical rods extending downwardly from the shoulder engaging loop. A plate covers the bottom of the brace. The apparatus also has a provision for adjustment to varying lengths of a horse's leg. The apparatus is attached to a horse by means of straps which go across the horse's back and hold the apparatus in place. It is suitable for use with all four-legged animals.
