Shoof BOS Calf Leg Splint

Help Correct Contracted Flexor Tendons in Newborn Calves

The Shoof BOS Calf Leg Splint is designed to support newborn calves born with contracted flexor tendons. This condition causes the fetlock joint to knuckle under, seriously limiting the calf’s ability to stand, walk and feed properly.

Applied to the back of the leg with the bottom edge at ground level, the BOS Calf Leg Splint helps restore a more natural leg position. Once fitted correctly, the calf should have improved mobility immediately.
