Advancing age was found to be a risk factor for PPID (odds ratio [OR] [95% confidence interval, CI]\u2009=\u20091.14 [1.10\u20131.18]), dental (OR [95% CI]\u2009=\u20091.18 [1.15\u20131.22]) and ocular (OR [95% CI]\u2009=\u20091.05 [1.01\u20131.10]) disorders. Only 36% of horses were free of owner\u2010reported veterinary\u2010diagnosed medical conditions at the time of the survey. During the year prior to the survey, most routine healthcare practices (i.e., veterinary health care, dental care and anthelmintic treatment) were typically undertaken one to two times per year, while farrier visits occurred mostly every 5\u20136\u2009weeks. Retired senior horses had a higher risk of no health care visits (OR [95% CI]\u2009=\u20092.1 [1.38\u20133.06]), no dental care (OR [95% CI]\u2009=\u20092.0 [1.31\u20133.00]) and low farrier attendance (i.e., \u22644 times\/year) (OR [95% CI]\u2009=\u20092.4 [1.57\u20133.63]) compared with senior horses used for pleasure riding. The most frequently administered drug was firocoxib (18%) and joint supplements were the most provided supplements (41%).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Main limitations<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Potential recall, response and sampling bias.
