Abstract
Lameness in dairy cattle is a well-recognized health concern and is associated with significant economic loss. Numerous studies have investigated lameness with a focus on lesions found in lame cows, rather than a comparison of lesions found in lame and non-lame cows. Moreover, lameness scoring has had but a minor role in lameness research. Objectives of this study were to categorize lesions in lame and non-lame cattle, and correlate them with lameness scores (LS), body condition scores (BCS) and milk production in select dairy cows in Michigan.
