Success Profile: Preston
Breed: Thoroughbred
Age: 8
Discipline: Hunter/Jumper
Owner: Kim Rohr and Caroline Pettet
My daughter Caroline started riding when she was seven, and had always wanted her own horse. I used to ride and had my own horse, so I understood her love and passion. I bought Preston, an off-the-track Thoroughbred, for her when she was fourteen. He had a lot to learn but was very eager, and Caroline had all of the patience he needed. He has been a true blessing for her. He has built her confidence, helped her become a more determined person, taught her patience, and given her so much love. He’s a little guy with a big heart, and will do anything for her. They’ve found their niche in the jumper arena and have done very well together!
We found out about SmartPak from our trainer and other horse owners, and I discovered that SmartPak has the BEST customer service I have ever come across in business (and I’m a business owner myself). We started getting supplements from SmartPak because as a chiropractic physician, I know the importance of supplementation. When we first bought Preston, we put him on SmartCalm Pellets to help him stay focused. More recently, we’ve added SmartMuscle Recovery Pellets to his supplement program.
I decided to start him on this formula because I noticed that he wasn’t performing as well on the second day of shows as he did on the first day. I have kept him on it throughout the show season and during his training, and have been very pleased with how he’s performing! I’ve found that it helps his muscles recover after exercise, and he doesn’t seem to have muscle discomfort. At a recent show, he was just as excited to perform the second day of the show as he was on the first day, and he and Caroline were champions twice in one weekend!
