“Now he is physically able to perform at his best”
My boy is a very lovely 17.1 18 year old warmblood who is educated to advanced level dressage and has the most incredible work ethic . X-rays taken in april last year show severe arthritis, calcification and arthritic change in my boy’s back fetlocks. He was a high level dressage horse when he was young and developed wind galls at around 11-12 which slowly progressed to the x-rays below. During this time I was struggling with overall stiffness and general lack of movement which was too be expected even with 20 minutes of walking warm up prior to a ride. The vet concluded that he was not in any pain as he wasn’t lame as such and that he was still fine to ride and compete if managed properly. He had been on devils claw for many years but I was after a product that would not only hide the stiffness but assist it. Rose hip vital equine seemed like the perfect product and after around 6 months on it I could not be happier with the result. His joints were too far gone to be ‘fixed’ as such but since being on your product he is no longer stiff and is able to perform movements he was previously unable to achieve (canter-walk, canter half pass). so thankyou thankyou thankyou! he always has had so much to give and now he is physically able to perform at his best. I have included some photos of him out competing since being on your product which show both his increased strength and suppleness.
Thanks, Elise
