My Andalusian horse Arador did not like the Amino trace plus, and he would normally just sniff his hay cubes which had the supplement in them, (even if I only put a 1/4 scoop in with his food) and just turn away from his food and refuse to eat it, and he loves his food. With the 10 amino Trace samples I was given to try I was not expecting him to like any of them, and when I started him on sample 1 , I was surprised that he ate it especially with the full scoop per feeding. He did not hesitate or even sniff before he ate it . so I expected as I got through the different flavors that eventually he would get one that he hated , and each time I was truly expecting him to turn away from his food, but to my surprise he actually ate every sample #1 to #10 without issues. So I wondered was the or...

Sully is a 3 yr old Appaloosa Gelding that I brought up from Texas in the summer of his weanling year. When he arrived he had a thick course terrible coat that really concerned me. No amount of grooming or good diet of “commercial” junior feed was helping. Then we noticed he was going bald and started scratching on anything and everything. We did blood test, skin scraping, skin biopsy and all was fine. We finally narrowed it down to a soy allergy and my vet wanted him off any commercial feed right away. We switched him over to oats and within a couple days he stopped itching. With Sully being a baby I knew he needed more nutritional support than what just hay and oats would give so that’s when the hunt for a soy free Vit/mineral began. My search quickly lead to Mad Barn Omneity. Sully has ...

I bought Shade a couple of years ago after working with her for a friend. They had had a terrible wreck together and both had their confidence shattered. After that incident the two just couldn't seem to connect. My friend was justifiably afraid of another potential serious injury, and Shade was afraid of well, just about everything. Sadly a scared horse and a scared rider do not make a good team, and so I was asked to work with her. I rode and competed her for a year before her owner asked if I'd take her. I was in love by that time, and we were making real progress, so of course I brought her home. We've been competing steadily ever since. Last Winter, Shade kicked her shelter wall and got her hoof caught up in the tin. When I first saw it, it looked as though someone had taken a mach...
