One way to tell is, obviously, if they are limping or showing signs of stress when they put weight on the leg. Another is if there is heat, swelling, or tenderness anywhere in the leg or hoof. Also, if a usually active horse is not moving, or only doing so reluctantly, it is a good idea to get a vet check.
