Event Horses Arrive in Aiken
After watching the precious dressage horses prance off to Aiken last week, the event horses finally found the sun in Aiken, arriving yesterday at Ilene Boorman’s beautiful farm. All the horses looked like they shipped well to South Carolina.
Meet Della and Sunny
One day while out for a walk, my horse Sunny stumbled badly over a tree root and severely strained a tendon in his left front leg. After working with my vet on a treatment plan, I started looking for a supplement for extra support.

Q & A on Hilton Herbs Easy Mare
How is Easy Mare formulated specifically for mares, and what types of “mare personalities” tend to benefit the most? Also, is it only for mares or can other horses benefit from the supplement as well?
Beat the Winter Blues
A long winter can take its toll on your horse in a number of ways. Luckily, supplements can help him with everything from keeping weight on to focusing in the ring (even when cool temps make him forget his manners).
How To Take Your Horse’s Vital Signs
Knowing how to measure your horse’s temperature (T), pulse (P) and respiration (R) is a basic barn skill every owner should have.
Meet Britni and Patchwork Ring Magic
Magic has always had a sensitive digestive system, especially his stomach, and the unpredictable weather in Texas doesn’t help.
Meet Taylor and Festy Eskimo
When I got Eskimo, he was barefoot and his hooves would get sore after long rides or work on rough ground. I tried hoof boots and other hoof supplements, but nothing seemed to work. Then I gave SmartHoof a try.
Supplement for Pregnant Mare
I would like to know if Mare Plus is dangerous to feed to a mare newly pregnant. It expired in July 08, is in SmartPaks, and has been kept cool and dark. I would expect it to be not as potent but is it okay for the first trimester?

Greetings from Florida!!
Hello from sunny Florida! I cannot tell you how good it is to be down here… well, I guess I can… it’s AMAZING!! All the horses traveled well, have all been body clipped and are now into their training routine.
Meet Janet and Freedom
My new horse, Freedom, used to get incredibly nervous when training. He’d prance around and break out into an anxious sweat, even if we were just standing in the middle of the arena!
Support for Equine Ligament Injury
I rescued a horse about one month ago, later to find that he has a degenerative suspensory ligament desmitis injury from racing. Is there anything I can do for this horse so that he can be started back in light riding in approximately six to 10 months?
