Where would be be without the internet? Reading about the possibility of arthritis makes me realize how much this horse needs out of an owner and it’s not happening and I’m not even talking about the money. It makes me kinda sad.
I wouldn't worry yet. She may have just been standing funny for the photo. If she stands that way all the time then there could be an issue but may just have been striking a funky pose. Everyone has to start someplace and lessons can be expensive too. Have a good vet and have them check the horse. They can point I you in the right direction for care, what to feed, and a lot of horse vets float teeth and they can worm her. I feel you k ow if your capable and sounds like you like and wanna help this mate and I commend you for that. A lot of horses and other animals suffer and don't have homes so if you wanna try to give her a home and have your kids learn to be around horses, then I think she would be a good start. I also think you have your head on your shoulders.
