In this episode, we explore the critical aspects of extending a horse's lifespan, with a focus on the influence of genetics, size, nutrition, and consistent care. We discuss the challenges and solutions in managing older horses' health, emphasizing the importance of a diet rich in fat and fiber for senior horses, along with proactive health checks like dental care, genetic testing, and blood work. Key topics also include understanding major health conditions such as colic and lameness, comparing controlled environments with wild conditions, and providing actionable tips to maintain equine health.
