My 19 year old horse is suffering with arthritis in his hocks at the moment. It started last year and the vet saw him in November when injections were due and said that when his bones fuse he may come sound again. I am just walking him at the moment although I can tell he is just dying to tank off (I just daren't let him!) so I was wondering if anyone else has had a similar kind of experience and how long can I expect him to be a walker before we start getting an improvement. he is on NoBute and Echinacea daily and he doesn't have heat in the area on a daily basis - Is it a case of how long is a piece of string or will a year or so make a reasonable difference to the condition. I know that now the warmer weather is coming it will be easier for him as the windy rainy days are worse!! Words of wisdom and experience would be grately appreciated!!
