by Sherman Canapp, Debra Canapp

Drs. Sherman and Debra Canapp walk you through the case of a geriatric border collie with a carpal injury. The carpus is a complex joint, and reaching a diagnosis can be difficult.

The Canapps discuss ways to identify these cases earlier, demonstrate how to proceed with optimal treatment options, then host a 30-minute session for questions about this case.

  • Isolate the reason for the forelimb lameness
