A new “old wives tale”

I was told by a vet that paint horses are more likley to have leg/feet problems vs. quarter horses. I already had a paint that turned out to have knee problems, and so did my trainer,and that got me thinking. I was curious if you knew anything on the subjectt?

That’s a new “old wives tale” – hadn’t heard that one before and I’m really surprised a vet would seriously repeat that…. Are you sure he wasn’t “pulling your leg”?

No he was serious. I was asking him what to look for in a barrel horses comformation and he said not to get a paint.

Gosh, if everyone took his stance, then there would be some really good barrel horses that were left standing in the pasture and never had the chance to show their stuff!
