Natural Horse Supplies - Vitex Agnus Castus also known as Chaste Berry and Monk’s Pepper. My horse has Cushings and Chaste Berry is well known to support horses suffering from this condition. It has certainly made a difference to my horse as his coat is shedding well this spring. Plus my horse feels much better in himself, he has more energy, and his depressed state has lifted. Chaste Berry is reported to support normal hormonal activity and provide nutritional support for the pituitary gland and endocrine system. Natural Horse Supplies offer this supplement at a competitive price, plus delivery is fast too.
Brinicombe Equine
Think Sound Joint Supplement I can highly recommend Brinicombe Equine’s Think Sound Joint Supplement as within a week of my horse starting this joint supplement I could see and feel a big difference. My horse is arthritic in his hocks. Before using Think Sound he was on another leading brand of joint supplement (more expensive too). Within a week of starting Think Sound it felt like someone had taken years off him. He was more comfortable, free moving and full of life. I found Think Sound to be far more effective than the other leading brand I had been using, and it is competitively priced too.
Think Fly from Brinicombe Equine. I had never tried a supplement to help reduce fly nuisance until I started my horse on Think Fly. You need to allow a few weeks for the supplement to build up into the system. After only 3 weeks I can report that my horse is less bothered by flies. For example one evening my horse and I walked in from the field along by the river I had a cloud of flies bothering me and the flies wanted to keep their distance from him. As it is in his system he gets 24 hour protection too!
Blue Chip
Blue Chip Original. I have been feeding Blue Chip Original to my horse Moss for two years and the difference it has made to his health is fantastic.
Blue Chip Joint RLF. My horse has arthritic hocks and using Blue Chip RLF has made a big difference to my horse, he is more comfortable and free moving. Blue Chip Joint RLF is usual as it is in a liquid form and it is easy to measure out with the cap provided. It tastes good too (I also tried it).
Horslyx I use the small tubs of Horslyx to offer to my horse as a treat. I use the licks not only as a treat but as a very useful distraction for when I need him to stand still e.g. when I am trimming his feathers. I use it as a treat as my horse is a laminitic and care must be taken with feeding Horslyx to laminitic horses. (There are feeding guidelines on their website). My friend’s horse is not laminitic and he has free access to his Horslyx, it is a great way of providing vitamins and minerals and it reduces boredom while he is stabled.
Restore and ImmuPlus from Indian Herbs Equine Many years ago my horse was diagnosed to have sarcoids by my vet. The vet recommended treatment using cream from Liverpool University, but we decided to delay the treatment for a few months until the winter months (less flies). While we waited I tried Restore and Immuplus from Global herds. To cut a long story short the sarcoids got smaller then disappeared and they have not returned! Much to my amazement and to my vet!
GWF Nutrition
Joint Aid Plus. I have used Joint Aid Plus for my arthritic horse. I found it to be a good joint supplement. Using this supplement helped my horse to feel more comfortable in his arthritic hocks. My horse loved the small pellet formula as he was very happy to eat it up in his small feed. He is a good doer so finding a supplement that is palatable is a big bonus.
GWF Nutrition X-Lam Aid We tested this product on a horse with Cushings disease that is prone to laminitis. During the time we tested the product the horse did not suffer a bout of laminitis. Other benefits we noted included: Improved digestion as the droppings firmer. A healthier looking coat. Hoof growth even with no rings often associated with laminitic horses. A boosted immune system as this horse often suffers with a stable cough and runny nose and while on X-Lam Aid this was not an issue. The pellet formula made it easy and palatable to feed. There was also an anti-inflammatory action as this horse also suffers from arthritis and it was noted the horse had more mobility while on X-Lam Aid. If your horse is prone to laminitis then this high quality supplement is worth every penny as it offers comprehensive nutritional support which has been developed with and approved by specialist equine veterinary practices.
