Long miles, uneven ground, pack loads — your horse’s legs are doing the work. But you don’t have to let them pay for it later. Here’s a smart, show‑safe leg‑care cadence to keep them strong, fresh, and ready for the next ride.
Before you hit that trailhead, walk your horse for 10–15 minutes on varied ground. Legs that start moving before the work are less likely to show signs of fatigue later. Then apply a thin layer of Draw It Out® 32 oz Horse Liniment Concentrate mixed at 70:30 (water:concentrate) and gently mist the lower legs and hocks. The result? Circulation kicks in, fatigue resistance goes up. 1
Plan a 5‑minute stop halfway through the ride. Walk your horse, stretch the joints, and if you see legs starting to look ‘loaded’, apply a light spray of the liniment at 50:50 ratio and gently massage the cannon bone down into the fetlock. This gives you a chance to reset before terrain or miles get the upper hand.
Once you’re back at camp or the trailer, rinse or clean off any dust and sweat from the lower legs. Then apply Draw It Out® 16 oz Liniment Gel to key joints and tendons (hocks, stifles, fetlocks). It’s sensation‑free, wrap‑ready and perfect for post‑ride fatigue. 2
If the horse stands overnight, use lightly moistened polos or no‑bows around the cannon/fetlock with the same gel beneath. Let it work while they rest — that’s smart recovery for the next day.
In the morning, look for tightness, swelling or warm spots. If everything’s cool and comfortable, walk the horse for 5‑10 minutes before mounting. If you spot anything, repeat the gel application and consider light turnout instead of a full ride. Recovery is often faster when you don’t push too hard.
Yes. Because the Draw It Out® Gel is wrap‑ready and doesn’t contain menthol or strong irritants, it’s safe under polos and boots once absorbed. 3
For maintenance you can use the 70:30 mix daily — for heavier days or multiple rides, bump up to 50:50. It’s designed for flexible use. 4
Start with the gel application, hand‑walk the next morning and assess. If swelling persists or is uneven, call your vet — this routine supports recovery, not replaces professional diagnosis.
Note: Legit care means consistency. This routine supports comfort and circulation—but it’s not a substitute for vet evaluation if issues persist.
