RE: [RC] Casslicks - heidi

Yes, it is.  But once done and undone, she will always be more prone to getting fecal contamination into her vagina, because the lips don't re-heal the same way they were before surgery.  Great producer of job security for veterinarians...
 
Heidi


On the subject of the Caslick procedure for mares, my Arab mare raced for 2 years. She had the procedure done and my vet said it is a simple procedure to have undone.
I can't remember who wrote in about a horse they had with a Caslick and they didn't know whether they had raced. I wondered, did the horse have a lip tatoo?  Most race horses do - mine does. Just something to check.
