Re: Solving the warm up - add PHOTO
From what I recently heard/saw IRAP has changed - it is now I injection. Last summer when my mare had it done it was 5 or 6 injections. A girl at the barn just had it done and it's only one and I certainly helped her horse that has ringbone.
Hopefully, the cost has also come down.
