Paint horses ,quarter horses, pretty much all horse breeds have been known to live ,some until 40 years old!
Depending on care given and general health that is..Many older horses can contract illness that in a younger horse can go unnoticed. Also some malidies are more likely to affect older horses more than a younger model.
I would seek answers pertaining to your horse, from your veterinarian. He or she can evaluate your horse and possibly make sure that there is nothing stopping him from reaching a ripe old age for you!
Good luck!!
