“…this is the only product
I have ever used that I have been extremely impressed with.”
June 16th, 2006
Dear folks at EquiPride,
I am writing first of all to thank you for your wonderful product.
It was recommended by an internet list friend. I went to your site
and knew I had to try it on my pony that has a cleft palate. Two
weeks later I saw a bucket at the check-out counter of my local feed
store, Seminole Feeds in Belleview, FL.
I am now finishing up my second bucket and just cannot express how
amazed and very pleased I am with your product. I run a small self
funded rescue, with 6 rescued horses with various conditions, two
navicular rehabs, one EPM’er, one insulin resistant,
one cleft palate
and one just plain mean appy who
has uveitis.
The results on the cleft palate pony were incredible. She also cribs
and we cannot use a Miracle collar due to her esophagus problems.
She has always stayed very thin, in spite of large intakes of grain.
I’ve used corn oil, Calf Manna, Weight-On and several expensive supplements
without success. She’s been on EquiPride for about 6 weeks now and
the before & after pictures say it all. They are hanging at the
counter beside your EquiPride sign.
I am telling everyone, till they’re sick of hearing it, how great
EquiPride is. I am on two internet lists both dealing with horses,
and the internet is a powerful tool for getting the word out.
After seeing what EquiPride did for the pony, I decided to try it
on the two lame horses. The one we’ve had for 5 years is now running,
bucking and doing great QH moves. He was nearly sound when we started
the EquiPride. The other lame horse is the one we just took in. He
is freshly out of shoes, still very touchy. We rehab using no shoes
and a natural trim method and it is normal that the horse has some
pain as the circulation returns to the feet. But the new hoof wall
is coming in thicker and healthier on both these horses.
So now I have 3 out of the 6 horses on EquiPride. Then I notice
that these 3 horses are really shiny & frisky and my other horses
looked “drab” in comparison. So now everyone is on EquiPride.
By the way, I do not advertise myself as a rescue as I do not rehab
horses to be adopted. All these six are to live their lives out here
with me. I also rescue cats and several dogs. My place is what I
consider to be a permanent retirement place for a few lucky animals,
though most normal people think it’s a zoo!
Again, thanks for your fine product.

In a later letter Deborah went on to say,
“The pony is out of two full sized registered Paints, her growth
was stunted. She was pulled from her mother at 2 days old, as she
was strangling while trying to nurse. She was raised in a stall with
a goat, and didn't even know how to eat grass when I got her. I researched
her condition, and learned that these horses rarely live beyond two
years, she is eight. They usually die from complications of pneumonia
as food particles get into their lungs. There is a surgery available,
but it was over five thousand dollars years ago and was not recommended
as the rate of serious complications is 80% and the chance of success
less than 25%. So all I can do for her is love her and take the best
care of her that I can. She is a miracle and I am proud to be the
one to own her. Most people see her, and tell me I should put her
down because of the nasal discharge. It is a rather gross sight,
but I wouldn't put a child down because of a chronic runny nose.
She has value to me, and I have used her as a companion for lots
of rehabbing horses.
Anyway thanks again, this is the only product I have ever used that
I have been extremely impressed with, and I want everyone with rescues
to know how well it works and how cost effective it is. I used to
think I couldn't afford it, and it is tough sometimes. But now I
feel that I can't afford NOT to buy it, as my feed/hay costs are
down and my horses have never looked and felt this good.
I start conversations about EquiPride at the checkout counter every
time and people listen. The manager thanked me for my efforts yesterday,
but I know I hold up the line sometimes, oh well. I just want people
to know for the horses' well being that there is a product that works
and is affordable. If I can afford it, anyone can. lol
PS: I am also sending a couple of pix of my 20+ year old rescued
navicular Quarter Horse, he is awesome and a real handful to ride
at times. This horse could not even walk without Bute. He’s now almost
completely sound and barefoot! I was outside looking at my horses,
and the last two that I put on EquiPride now have the shine and gleam
the others have.
