: I dont personally own a horse but i ride a horse with a slight case of navicular. How long do u think he is going to live? (estimated). Will it get worse or do u think it will stay moderate like it is now?
: Thanks so much

I busted my crystal ball the other day so who knows how long a horse will live???(JOKE)
Proper shoeing will keep him comfortable and maybe alittle useful until the time of his demise. Just make sure you have a good farrier and get him done on a regular basis! Good Luck! Gary
