: What we in the horse world refer to as “maintenance” - joint injections, systemic drugs like Adequan or Tildren, and other medical interventions - are amazing tools to help us keep our partners healthy and sound. They can extend their comfortable years, and help horses with imperfect xrays or imperfect conformation continue to have useful jobs.

They’re also part of a big puzzle. Proper nutrition is key. Proper lifestyle management is key. Tack fit, shoeing, and thoughtful training with plenty of variety. None of these replace hock injections, nor do hock injections replace any of these. And there’s no one-size-fits-all to any approach either: some horses live long and healthy lives with less turnout than others, and some horses go their entire careers without needing a needle.

But the more movement there is in a horse’s body, the greater the risk of injury. Horses that do low-level work their entire lives, and have natural gaits for a 5, don’t abuse themselves like the mega-athletes that do the Grand Prix. And no matter the level or the gifts from God, when one part of a horse’s body hurts (due to saddle fit or bad shoeing or just the slow, methodical building up of topline that sometimes leaves us sore), they’re more likely to overstress another. And that’s how horses get the kind of injuries that take a long time to heal, if they heal at all.

Find the best trainer, the best farrier, and the best sports medicine practitioner you can, and then make sure they all talk to one another. Make the best choices you can, both for your horse and your wallet. And then say a little prayer to whatever you believe in, because there’s not enough corticosteroids in the world to prevent horses from being stupid in the field 🤣
