Nanric Foal Extension™

Many years ago, Dr. Redden's Dalric Extension concept offered the world a new look at treating angular deformities in foals. He is now introducing the Nanric Foal Extension. A second-generation extension made of ABS plastic that is lightweight, easy to use, does not require sedation, and is very effective when used on young foals.

Indications:

Valgus Fetlock (toed-in)

• Apply to the lateral side of the hoof. Early detection is the key, as the optimum response period is 5-30 days of age.

• The optimum window of response is 30-60 days.

Application: Valgus Hock (windswept)

1. Clean the foot with a sanding block
2. Fit the cuff to the foot using the center toe marker as a guide. Note the cuff length at the coronary band and trim when necessary.
3. Apply composite. We recommend Vettec's Super Fast for 1-week-old foals and Equilox works well for older foals (though sedation may be required when using Equilox as it takes longer to cure).
4. Warm the extension in cold weather to speed up set time.

Recommended Shoeing Schedule:
