Positive Changes for 2017

Once again I have been slacking on the blog writing, but to my defense I made changes & wanted to give a better opinion on them! So where to being now? I ran this months Succeed Fecal Blood Test & it was picture perfect negative! I had switched his GI supplement to Ritetrac to see if I would notice any better improvements, but I did not & therefor saw no reason to continue with a supplement he showed no improvements with. He was on it for a little over two weeks & if there was going to be a change I would have noticed something. So I went back to my tried & trusted Assure products. I did however step up to the highest support level called Assure Guard Gold. I am even more in love with this product.... why? Because it supports the major 3 areas needed! The stomach, hindgut & sand removal all in one supported everyday! Ben loves the pellets & it's easy dosing & I know he's getting the highest level of support! I recommend any of the Assure products to any horse. They have all different levels of support for whatever your needs may be!

Another change that has made a complete 180 so to speak is adding Astrid's Oil to his diet. What is it? Cold compressed oat oil is what it is! Why is that so amazing because it gives the horse what it lacks & needs support in. For Ben he needed weight/condition & always could use some added GI support! He has packed on pounds & muscle like nobodies business! He has been on the oil for 22 days & I am extremely impressed with what I see. He is gaining weight, muscle, overall happier/calmer, getting up better, appetite increase, water intake increase, & the shine on him was always good but now you need your sunglasses to look at him! This is the only oil on the market that is like this & it only just became available in December. I highly recommend all horse owners look into it & highly consider it. I cannot even do a description justice on what this product can do for your horse. The oat oil contains all the benefits of feeding oats without the starch content if that is a major concern. It's extremely high in polar lipids which have amazing benefits & properties one being strengthen the GI lining over time & decreasing/ helping prevent ulcers! Just google Astrid's Oil & prepare to be amazed!

With Ben turning 28 I am very into making sure he stays healthy & happy. Yes I have been doing that all along, but after much research into nutrition recently & I mean a lot! LOL I have decided to change Ben's feed from the Cavalor Fiberforce & Strucomix Senior to the Crypto Aero feed instead. Why if he's been doing so well? Because research has proven to me that is not the healthiest support for horses that's why. The Crypto Aero has no fillers, no preservatives, no GMO's, nothing but wholefood. A diet the horse has evolved on. Bringing back the basics. I do feel a lot of issues horses face & deal with today are a result of the feed. You eat healthy why not your horse too? Google Crypto Aero feed & again prepared to be amazed...... I just started this feed the other day & he loves it but I cannot give a full review on it just yet until at least next month!

Ben's solar trough has been some of the best money spent ever. Those that criticize about the price won't understand until they have tries it just how amazing that trough is! It has now been in below zero, extreme winds, snow, ice, rain, you name it that trough has powered through it all. Not one speck of ice, not one frozen float, nothing but full water access that is a comfortable water temperature for your horse. Never worry about ice again or a dehydrated horse! BT Solar Suntank is worth their weight in money hands down.

Ben has been doing very well lately & I intend to do my very best to keep it that way hence why I do so much research! I feel like I finally found his support system to a healthy Ben & a happy Ben! With 24/7 turnout, Crypto Aero feed, Assure Guard Gold, Astrid's Oil, Vitamin E, Smartflex Senior herb free, & free choice grass hay & alfalfa in moderation! That is the ingredient for a healthy, happy senior!
