Thanks everyone!! He is a character!! I have had to do a lot of work with him and a lot more to do. He had never been a ranch or cowhorse before, so it has been a whole new world for him. He spooked at EVERYTHING when I first got him! And last weekend he got to compete in his first Team Sorting competition!!!!! So he has come a long way!!!!!

The stifle is kind of the equivilant of the human knee. In Busters case the tendons and ligaments had stretched out so much around the stifle that it stayed dislocated.
