Abstract

The article focuses on show horses and how their age impacts them. The author discusses scaling back for senior horses rather than just retiring them, explains the physiological and structural changes that happen as horses age, including their teeth, joints, and immune system, and presents questions horse owners can ask themselves. Information on horses that are too old to breed is also included.
