Checking for muscle soreness

Greyhound's health and well being always come 1st. No abuse or neglect ever.

Brilliant that. Very helpful. Be nice to see a video using the laser and ultrasound on a dog too.

Personally i find you are better off checking a stopper by pushing a smaller finger that doesn't have a long nail down in the divot or hole while holding the other leg off the ground with 2 to 3kg of pressure. Same with metacarpals as the pressure is on the foot as it would be in the same position while running. Also i always extend the front legs as it will show a small tear in the leg or chest better. If you know the animal even better as you know there limits. Some are sooks and will sook or pull away at anything you do until they are used to it. Also you should check the spine by pushing down at each joint. With about 2kg of pressure. The middle of the spine is more succeptable to issues due to the weight supported by it. So the closer to the middle the more it may be an issue. But you still need to determine if its the spine thats the issues or the muscles supporting it. More often than not the muscles supporting it is the issue. If they are strong it will support the spine. Uphill straight work will build that up best but any straight work will help. But clearly make sure they are not tender first.
