Equine Testimonials: Rose-Hip Vital Success Stories

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!

"How can we not believe when the proof is right in front of us"

Longy is a 15.2hh 16yo Stockhorse gelding. My daughter has owned him for five wonderful years. They both enjoy jumping even if he did rush at the jumps. A couple of years ago, we noticed that Longy started to kick out when approaching a jump, to which we thought it was his jump boots, then his saddle, which we replaced with a brand new one. Unfortunately his behaviour deteriorated and we were at a loss. My husband and I first met Justin from Rose-Hip Vital at Equitana Sydney when we were on the lookout for a supplement of some kind for Longy. Being a sceptic, I reluctantly tried it at home with Longshot out of pure desperation. Surprisingly his behaviour improved. No more kicking out, pigrooting and misbehaving. I thought it was a coincidence so when we ran out, we didn’t rush to buy more. Big mistake! His antics in the jumping arena returned with a vengeance. It was then discovered that his lower spine behind his saddle was stiff and locking, causing him pain. We ran into Justin again at another event and restocked with RHV and started adding it to his feed immediately. And yes, he is jumping happily again. How can we not believe when the proof is right in front of us. Exceptionally happy and relieved.

"I began using Rose-Hip Vital when my 14yr old Thoroughbred started to feel very unwilling to jump often looking for a way out and not traveling to his fences like he use to, he had been on shark net for many years and he wasn't lame as such I thought he had just come to a stage in his life where he needed to retire from high level showjumping...READ MORE"

"Within 2 months I didn't just get my old horse back but a new and improved horse that began to love jumping again"

I began using Rose-Hip Vital when my 14yr old Thoroughbred started to feel very unwilling to jump often looking for a way out and not traveling to his fences like he use to, he had been on shark net for many years and he wasn't lame as such I thought he had just come to a stage in his life where he needed to retire from high level showjumping.

I researched both Rose-Hip Vital and 4Cyte as a last bid attempt to get my horse back to high level competition. As a vet nurse I see a lot of products come onto the market for joint assistance but Rose-Hip Vital is the only one that offers not just anti inflammatory components but antioxidative properties as well. 

Within 2 months I didn't just get my old horse back but a new and improved horse that began to love jumping again, traveling to his fences with a lovely, smooth, eager attitude (if I thought he felt FINE before he felt amazing now). 

I have also put our 8yr old mare that has tendency's to tying up as a preventative maintenance treatment and have noticed she now travels with more free movement especially from behind, and loves to kick up behind over her fences, which is a great sign she's feeling happy and well. 

We then noticed there was a capsule for humans, my partner Anthony has a bulging disc which gives him a lot of lower back and groin pain. We thought if the horses can feel this good why can't he. After a few months he has found movement is a lot easier and his recovery after competing has dramatically reduced. 

Thank you Rose-Hip Vital for not only giving me my horse back but a newer, happier horse, and a much happier pain free partner.

"I am a very happy customer"

Just thought that I would touch base with you again to let you know what I am up to with your product use. Well I am now feeding it to 3 horses consistently:

  1. Diamond B Vixen (World Cup Winner) who is resting with a small cartilage tear and currently in foal. She looks amazing and have noticed changes in her hind legs where she has some fluid pockets just below her hocks, they are reducing and looking normal
  1. Diamond B Carla, also looking amazing and has always had a small amount of stiffness in offside shoulder, now has a completely even stride in front and no sign of any stiffness at ALL and her temperament is exceptionally good. This become even more evident to me when I ran out of product for the last 3 weeks (thinking I would be able to buy it somewhere in the next few days but places where out of stock etc and I keep forgetting to ring and order it). Sam Buchanan her competition rider keep saying “she doesn’t feel quite as good, something is different” and I could hear from her footfalls that she had a slight difference in length of stride in her front legs and I was noticing again that she was becoming a cranky mare again!! Ding Ding the Penny Dropped!
  1. Diamond B Centurian, again looking amazing with a beautiful colour to his chestnut coat. And again not having any product for the last 3 weeks when taking him to a recent comp on the weekend broke out in hives (as a reaction I believe to the change in bedding) resulting in needing vet treatment and no competing. Previously he had been a very sensitive skinned horse often suffering from mysterious bites/reactions etc but I now realise that whilst taking Rose-Hip Vital he suffered from none of these.
So I am a very happy customer and I would be more than happy to promote your product in any way that we can. Love it. Even now going to try it on my own stiff body - Ragina Buchanan.

We have been using Rose-Hip Vital Equine for our two Arabian galloways since October 2017. A friend suggested your product after watching our buckskin ditch my 13 year old daughter in spectacular fashion at an interschool event.


Our pure bred 4 year old chestnut had also suffered significant injury 4 weeks prior after running through and snapping 4 rungs of tensioned wire, and skidding down a main road and over speed bumps at top speed – to say she was “cut up” is an understatement. I was sceptical but semi-desperate.


Within the first month we could see a noticeable difference in both horse’s attitude, work ethic, suppleness and enthusiasm. The chestnut wounds began to heal at a super fast rate and she now has very minimal scarring which is miraculous considering the extent of her original injuries.


The buckskin is now comfortably jumping 60cm+, completing clear rounds, and has even began to show an aptitude and keenness for X country! We now have two happy, healthy and willing mares who are a pleasure to take out and about. I am more than happy for anybody considering the purchase of this product to inbox me personally for before and after video’s and a parent’s perspective on why this product is an essential additive to the diet of EVERY child’s pony.

"Mighty Murphy has remained ‘mighty’ because of Rose-Hip Vital Equine!!!"


My 27 year old pony Murphy and I have been together as a combination for the past 4 years, engaging in many activities such as Pony Club, Showing and Eventing, doing lot of Cross country jumping!


Last year Murphy and I competed in the Equestrian Australia Interschool National Championships in Toowoomba, Queensland. It was a very long trip, as we live in Adelaide, but we had a very successful campaign placing 3rd overall in the EvA 80cm and 3rd overall in the Primary Show Horse – Working Hunter.


It was a very tough campaign to qualify for the Eventing as we had to compete in 6 qualifying events overall.


Murphy and I were going well initially, however by the 4th consecutive event I felt he just wasn’t right – he didn’t have his usual spring in his step. We started the competition when i began to notice that something was wrong. After completing the dressage phase I warmed him up for show jumping, but we decided to retire him as we were quite worried about his sudden change.


When we returned home we had him checked by the vets and all was okay; it was suggested by the blood test results that he was just tired. We rested him for two weeks and during this period a friend recommended that I read up on the Rose-Hip Vital Equine. I thought it sounded good, so I purchased some and we started Murphy on it straight away.


The results were amazing. Murphy was back to his old self in no time and we were back on schedule for our selection campaign!!


We competed at the Interschool State Championships in Dressage, Show Jumping, Combined Training and Working Hunter and we won all four events. We were awarded the State Primary Champion. Murphy was amazing.


Having Murphy on a daily maintenance dose, and then increasing as recommended leading up to competition made all the difference in his health and wellbeing, and overall performance.


Thank you Rose-Hip Vital Pty Ltd for making such an amazing product. Mighty Murphy has remained ‘mighty’ because of Rose-Hip Vital Equine !!!
