You know what’s normal for your horse better than anyone.

That’s what makes you the first line of defense when something is off, even something as easy to overlook as a slightly shorter stride or a little extra hesitation before work.

Trust what you’re seeing and loop your vet in early.

Does your horse seem a little stiffer than they used to be—slower to get going, shorter strides, reluctant to pick up a lead?

It’s easy to chalk it up to “just getting older,” but joint discomfort can show up gradually, and the earlier it’s noticed, the more options you and your veterinarian have to discuss.

If something feels different, it’s worth mentioning to your veterinarian.
