dc.description.abstractA total of 155 cases of lambs with lameness were presented for treatment from January, 2009 to July, 2009 at an organized sheep farm. The affected lambs were segregated into four groups and different treatment regimens were assessed. Animals of group 1 were treated by hoof trimming and foot bath. Those of group II were administered Streptopenicillin, along with hoof trimming. For group III, hoof trimming, foot bath and Streptopenicillin were administered, while the animals of group IV were treated with a combination of hoof trimming, foot bath, Streptopenicillin and topical oxytetracycline. Significant difference (P<0.01) existed between treatments I, II and treatments III and IV. Among the treatments, it was found that animals of groups III and IV responded better (80.0 and 94.3 percent, respectively). The salient features of foot rot and different management options available for treatment and control of this condition are discussed.en_US
