Answer 1

Constant excersise. He needs his joints moving. And try to keep him in a pasture, so he moves, not in a stall. He needs to be flexible and you don't want his legs to tense up.

Answer 2

There is a product in Australia called Penetrene.  Great for arthritis in horses.  I don't know if it is available everywhere.  Try your vet or animal feed store.

Answer 3

find herbs suitable for him and his athritis
