no, if the mare has a only a small amount of foals in her life pregnancy will not cause her a sway back. if the mare has has many foals in her time this can cause her to have a swayback. it generally depends on how many foals she has had and what age she had them at. other things besides pregnancy can also casue horse to have swayback

What is the Weight limit for a person to ride a horse?

There is no set weight limit to riding a horse. However, horses can carry 1/3 of their weight. If your weight is more than 1/3 of your horses, you can cause injuries and soreness. And eventually the horse will become sway (its back will curve in) with age. People should choose a horse that is strong enough to hold them. Make sure of this to be sure you are not harming your horse.

To find the age of a horse in horse years you multiply the horse's age in human years by 3. For example, if you have a horse that is 6 in human years it would be 18 in horse years. You can find a horse's age in horse years no matter what age the horse is in human years. Glad to help!

How can you tell a horse is five years old?

There are several indications of a horse's age, many similar to those seen in humans. Old horses will move more slowly and with less spring in their step. A black, brown or other non-grey horse that has grey or white hairs around its muzzle is probably old. The hair in an older horse's mane and tail thins, and mares may come on heat less frequently. The easiest way to tell a horse's age is by looking in its mouth. A very young horse will still have its milk teeth, which are smaller and whiter. After 6 months the milk teeth start to fall out. By age 4, most horses have a complete set of adult teeth. When they come through they are straight, white and not worn. You can tell how old a horse is by the slope and amount of wear on its teeth. This website has diagrams and a good explanation: www.hanne.com/teeth-ageing.html

What is a geriatric horse?

A geriatric horse, is an elderly horse.The joints of the horse will start to get puffy, and circulation will become less, since the heart grows weaker with age. This stage of a horse's life begins in the horse's late teens or early twenties (which is around 60 to 70 years of age equivalent in humans). A horse's back will begin to sag, making it look quite sway-backed, and many develop age-related disorders such as kidney and liver disease. In the wild, these conditions contribute to rapid deterioration and death. A wild geriatric horse in the wild is one that is most likely to be hunted and killed by predators like wolves, bears and mountain lions.
