- TS | The subject of blistering with regard to bowed tendons was just
- TS | brought up so I thought I'd respond.
- TS | Blistering is no longer considered to be of any therapeutic use
- TS | for treating bowed tendons. All it does is scar the outside skin and
- TS | cause more damage to the leg but in another area.

- Atually, veterinarians have now learned both blistering and pin-firing
- have no therapetic use for any horse problem. Now that we know they do
- nothing, they're continued use is just cruelty.
