Sheer Etiquette (Ellie)

CONDITION: Joint Pain
RIDER: Susan Paix's
LOCATION: AUS

In 2011 we started competing at Grand Prix International, unfortunately arthritic changes and stiffness set in for Ellie and we sadly decided to retire. Six months ago I started Ellie on Rose-Hip Vital. The change is unbelievable. 

Ellie is better now than when she was competing. Ellie and I are going back into competition at the ripe age of 20. This is so exciting!

Life is too short to be unhealthy. Thank you Rose-Hip Vital!

“He feels like a new horse!”

My horse Albert (Alluvian) is a 16 yo thoroughbred. He had a long and successful race career, but he is now my event horse. He is currently competing successfully at 1* level in Tasmania.

Before Rosehip Vital Equine, Albert would often pull up stiff and sore after competitions. He also suffers from extremely sensitive skin and regularly broke out in hives and sores, and had constant dandruff and dry skin. He would always try his very best for me, and do whatever I asked, however I felt I couldn’t push him due to his soreness after competitions.

Albert has now been on Rosehip Vital Equine for over 2 months. His skin has cleared up dramatically and his coat is softer, with more shine. He no longer gets stiff after competitions and there is an obvious improvement in his general well being. He feels like a new horse! He has gone from dropping 3+ rails in the Showjumping phase of 3 day events to jumping clear rounds and has not had any soreness through his back or hips. I now feel happy to take him out and compete, knowing he won’t be suffering the next day with tired and stiff muscles. I definitely recommend Rosehip Vital Equine to anyone who wants to keep their horse as happy and healthy as possible, creating better competition results and happier horses!

Most people best know "Flaunt It" as a 4* Eventer. He was also an advanced dressage horse and a Grand Prix show jumper. A training accident put an end to his competition career in June 2012 at the age of 13. We had a fall during a show jump training session when the horse slipped in front of a fence due to wet conditions. It was to be our last jump of the day. It resulted in him landing with a rail between his leg and the ground resulting in a nasty bang to his left fetlock and down into the pastern. The result was severe arthritic changes and a nasty spur. It was the end of his eventing career as every time we tried to jump or gallop him he was becoming sore and in fact got to the point where even a trot around the paddock was causing intermittent lameness some days. We were keen that he should be able to do some light duties as we feel that retired competition horses tend to age very quickly and he is very special to us. We were treating him with Pentosan and large doses of a Green Lip Mussel product with varying success. Some days he was ok and then some days not good, 3 out of 5 lame. It was suggested to us by the vets at Randwick Equine Centre that we try the Rose-Hip Vital product and with not much hope we agreed. The results were astounding. The improvement was obvious very quickly. We have been able to take Flaunt It of the Green Lip Mussel and the Pentosan and just manage him on the Rose Hip Vital. We no longer have any lameness, even if he gallops around the paddock. He is able to do his work to keep him young and healthy. He appears to be so sound we are talking about competing him again as a dressage horse and show jumping. Thank you Rose Hip Vital for giving Flaunt It a second chance and a longer, healthier and happier life.

"They felt free in their action, their coats were healthier, and their attitude to work had improved"

My experience with Rose-Hip Vital Equine started when my partner Tim began using the product a few years ago for himself and his eventers. After seeing the results with my own eyes and hearing him rave about it, I decided I would have to... borrow... some for my own eventers. After a few weeks of… borrowing... I noticed a difference in the way my horses felt. They felt free in their action, their coats were healthier, and their attitude to work had improved. Six weeks ago Tim left for England with two of his horses - GV Billy Elliot and Napoleon - to compete for the season.. and with him went my supply of RHVE!! It literally took less than 2 weeks of not using the product for me to feel the difference in my horses. In particular my 2 star horse Umunga. At 16 he is relatively old for the level he is competing at, however he has NEVER felt his age. He is an exuberant character and can sometimes get a little too excited for the dressage. However that healthy spring in his step always comes in handy for cross country and showjumping, where he usually shines. After not having his daily RHVE, Umi felt instantly creaky, shorter in his stride and generally old. I can honestly say the difference was unbelievable. The whole time he had been on RHVE I took for granted how effective it had been. Needless to say they are all back on their RHVE and I am very much looking forward to having my horses looking and feeling their best again. Particularly Umi as he heads towards Melbourne International 3 Day Event in June. Our Labrador Teddy has been a loyal customer at SASH since he was 6 months old. He has had OCDs removed from both his elbows. He has also had surgery to repair the cruciate ligament in his left hind when he was 4 years old, then the right hind when he was 6 years old. We joke that he is the world's most expensive dog! He generally didn't do much, mostly slept on his couch at home and in the tack box when we were away at horse events. When we discovered Rose-Hip Vital Equine, we also discovered Rose-Hip Vital Canine. Suddenly our slovenly, lame Labrador was running around like a puppy, playing and spending more time outside on the yard and less time on the couch! Even Andrew, Teddy's surgeon from SASH can't quite believe how well Ted is moving? He was genuinely surprised to hear recently that at 8 years old Teddy is able to happily walk a 5km cross country course with us pain free.
