"We have all had the problem of cows going down in our vet race, when being attended for minor procedures or surgery. But most frequently when undergoing hoof treatments. Once a hoof is lifted off the ground the cow can feel very unstable. Our new belly strap is easily attached when the cow is being restrained. The far end with hook attachment is passed under the cow and fixed to a high rail. The near end is then also hooked up. The strap is then pulled through the one-way buckle until the cow is supported. This device is rugged and durable, and will suit a wide variety of pipe races."
