Family Pet/Retired

Thanks largely to progress in veterinary and alternative medicine, horses can remain healthy and sound well into their late teens and early twenties. A 12 year old horse is still in its prime. It is not uncommon today for horses to live to be thirty or older. However, like an older person, an elderly horse does need some extra care to remain healthy. It is the owner’s responsibility to see their horse receives the necessary food, water, shelter and care to keep them mobile and in shape no matter what their age.

With a basic understanding of equine biomechanics and physiology, the importance of muscle health is critical to performance and longevity.
