I am looking to purchase a warmblood colt and found out that he has had check ligament surgery on both front legs. ( a vet from Tufts University did the surgery). At 5 weeks he was growing too fast and he started getting contracted tendons. Can I hear more info about this surgery, will it affect a jumper prospect?
