Dad looking to buy this horse for his 8yr old girl... but is it a Stifle injury?

Sorry all, I am late to the conversation😢

The Seller had zero business trying to sell that horse. In the bottom video where the child is being led that horse can barely walk. ā€œstabbingā€ is a common term for what that horse is doing and he is so bad, it almost appears he is in pain from front to back.

The vet’s and farrier’s are full of it, if they can’t see that. The issue could be anything, anywhere, inclauding structurally or arthritis somewhere.

Iā€˜d bet money the seller knows what’s wrong but the fact the poor horse is so sweet in temperment to put up with a light rider, the seller will capitalize on that to recoup whatever money they can and let the horse become someone else’s problem..

I hope the Op did not purchase this horse.
