2011 Original Story:
Spice tends to be high strung in unfamiliar situations. At shows, she would spook at everything from trailers to other horses. In the ring, she was tense and always ready to bolt. I was really getting discouraged, so I started looking for calming supplements and found SmartCalm. I figured I had nothing to lose, so I ordered it. What a difference! Spice is much more relaxed in new situations—for example, if she’s unfamiliar with something, she’ll sniff it instead of spooking or running away.
SmartCalm has made our showing experience so much more enjoyable—she has even won a few champion awards!
2012 Update:
Spice is a pro at shows now. As we started showing at bigger shows and indoors, I switched her to SmartCalm Ultra to offer more support. This year, we attended our biggest show ever – there were new sights and sounds, including showing at night for the first time. She behaved beautifully, and we were Reserve Champion out of 25 horses! I’m certain SmartCalm Ultra helped to keep her cool and focused. Spice is also on SmartHoof and SmartShine*, and I am thrilled with the condition of her skin, coat, and hooves!
*2020 Update: Kristen's updated SmartPak Supplement Success Story was written in 2012 about or original SmartShine formula. This supplement has since been updated and improved.
