Abstract: A robotic cleaner includes a housing, a suction conduit with an opening, and a leading roller mounted in front of a brush roll. An inter-roller air passageway may be defined between the leading roller and the brush roll wherein the lower portion of the leading roller is exposed to a flow path to the suction conduit and an upper portion of the leading roller is outside of the flow path. Optionally, a combing unit includes a plurality of combing protrusions extending into the leading roller and having leading edges not aligned with a center of the leading roller. Optionally, a sealing strip is located along a rear side of the opening and along a portion of left and right sides of the opening. The underside may define side edge vacuum passageways extending from the sides of the housing partially between the leading roller and the sealing strip towards the opening.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an augmented visual assessment system and methods of using the system for identification of a disorder in animals. In particular, the present disclosure provides an AVA (Augmented Visual Assessment) with CCS (Computed Core Symmetry) that allows practitioners to objectively gather, measure, assess and share data on gait asymmetry (e.g., lameness) and impaired motor movement of animals.

Abstract: Methods of treating superficial digital flexor tendon injuries, deep and superficial muscle/tendon contracture, navicular syndrome, and suspensory ligament inflammation and injuries in the limb of a quadruped animal, such as hooved animals and other quadrupeds. Such abnormalities may be inflammatory or associated with pain. The abnormalities may be chronic or acute. Such abnormalities may involve anatomical structures a limb, neck, torso, and/or pelvis of the quadruped animal.

Abstract: Methods of treating musculoskeletal deformities of an anatomical structure in a quadruped animal with botulinum toxin are described. Such deformities can be rotational or flexural. Such deformities can be acquired or congenital. Such anatomical structures include a limb, neck, torso, and/or pelvis of the quadruped animal.

Abstract: The present invention generally relates to methods for treating the sequela of laminitis in hoofed animals. Benefits are obtained by administering to the animals to be treated injections of Botulinum Toxin in the limb to be treated. In one embodiment, about 100 Units to 600 Units of Type A Botulinum Toxin is injected in multiple injections into the flexor digitorum profundus muscle of an animal's affected limb.
