title: Comparison of treatments for ovine foot rot.
abstract: Sheep affected with foot rot were treated by vaccination and/or hour-long footsoaks, without hoof paring. The response to each treatment was obvious, but the cure rate was not satisfactory for eradication efforts. Booster vaccination and hoof paring combined with medication applied topically greatly improved the response to treatment. There was little difference in response to footsoaking or footbathing when hooves were pared.
