| dc.description.abstract | OCD and OA are common diseases found in all horses whether they`re working horses, racehorses, show horses, pleasure hoses, or even wild horses. However the chances of developing an OCD or OA do change depending on the use of the horse due to the different causative factors that range from nutrition and training of individual horses.
