Why do horses in training need daily leg care?

Heavy training stresses joints, tendons, and ligaments. Daily care prevents swelling, soreness, and long-term soundness issues.

What’s the best daily routine for horse legs?

Cool-down walks, rinsing sweat, liniment massage, and wrapping when needed keep legs healthy.

Is liniment safe for daily use?

Yes. Draw It Out® Gel is sensation-free and show-safe, perfect for daily recovery routines.

Daily Leg Care for Horses in Training

5-minute read • Updated for performance care

Training hard builds fitness—but it also puts stress on your horse’s legs. Consistent daily care helps prevent swelling, soreness, and injuries, keeping your partner ready for the next ride.

Quick tip: legs tell the story of a horse’s workload. Daily checks and care protect performance and soundness.

Daily Leg Care Routine

Cool Down First — Always walk 10 minutes after work to let circulation normalize.
Rinse & Dry — Remove sweat and dirt to prevent skin irritation and allow better product absorption.
Apply Liniment — Massage Draw It Out® 16oz Gel down tendons, knees, and hocks to support recovery.
Wrap if Needed — Use standing wraps after hard work or hauling to prevent stocking up.
Treat Skin Issues — Apply Rapid Relief Restorative Cream to rubs or minor irritations before wrapping.
