Dad looking to buy this horse for his 8yr old girl... but is it a Stifle injury?

Sorry all, I am late to the conversationšŸ˜¢

The Seller had zero business trying to sell that horse. In the bottom video where the child is being led that horse can barely walk. ā€œstabbingā€ is a common term for what that horse is doing and he is so bad, it almost appears he is in pain from front to back.

The vetā€™s and farrierā€™s are full of it, if they canā€™t see that. The issue could be anything, anywhere, inclauding structurally or arthritis somewhere.

Iā€˜d bet money the seller knows whatā€™s wrong but the fact the poor horse is so sweet in temperment to put up with a light rider, the seller will capitalize on that to recoup whatever money they can and let the horse become someone elseā€™s problem..

I hope the Op did not purchase this horse.
