hock problems

by

 

What would you do if the x-rays of the hocks of a 3 year old showed "mild degenerative joint disease" ie: mild arthritis?

I am still thinking about buying her, because I simply fell in love!
I sure can’t tell she is stiff in her back legs. Judges did (3rd premie). Vet did.
She is deemed sound for pleasure riding, but couldn’t be expected to go beyond 2nd degree dressage, which is OK with me today--but tomorrow?
She has no star behind for 2 generations.

Any input?
Am I crazy, or simply ignorant, because I don't know what I'd be getting into?
