I have a 4 year old mare that is in perfect health, but when i lounge or ride her sometimes her joints will make a popping sound and she will occasionally trip on her left hind. It just kind of gives way when she is going into a downward transition from a trot to a walk. I am not sure if it is a joint problem or something else and i am just trying to see if anyone has any ideas of what the problem could be? She is only 4 and has been under saddle for about a year. She hasn't had any lameness issues other than an abcess on her right front about a year and a half ago, which healed in a week or so. I was also thinking about putting her on a joint supplement. If you have any ideas on what kind, i would really appreciate it!
