Lameness in dairy heifers; impacts of hoof lesions present around first calving on future lameness, milk yield and culling risk

The importance of lameness in primiparous dairy heifers is increasingly recognised. Although it is accepted that clinical lameness in any lactation increases the risk of future lameness, the impact of foot lesions during the first lactation on long-term lameness risk is less clear. This retrospectiv...
