I switchded to straight MSM for a while to cut my cost (Cosequin before). Panache went absolutely BONKERS on it. She's already a bit on the hot side and is a total drama queen; but the MSM made her almost unrideable. Switched back to Cosequin and problem gone. So once you add supps into the diet keep an eye out for behavior changes.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15321118722150772797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-52371353161094311.post-69108968765380056022010-06-09T11:05:04.218-07:002010-06-09T11:05:04.218-07:00ohhhh, I both love and hate supplement shopping!
F...ohhhh, I both love and hate supplement shopping!<br />For joints, if money were no object (hahaha), I'd probably have Miles on SmartFlex III. As it is, he has done WONDERFULLY on one scoop of MSM/day (10,000 milligrams, I think? I buy whatever is on sale but it's pretty cheap no matter) and 1/2 to 1 scoop of pure Glucosamine (14,000 milligrams a scoop - this is what I use http://www.valleyvet.com/ct_detail.html?pgguid=f35d26bd-0a0b-4271-ac75-9444bb5af2e4 )<br />I decided to go with large amounts of just a couple of (what I consider) the most important ingredients rather than one or two multi ingrediant supps that don't contain levels as high as that. So far so good-in about 6 weeks he moved like a different horse, and he's got some not so insignificant arthritis in his right front ankle especially.<br />I really trust all the smart pak supplements though. I've also heard great things about Grand Meadows, which has a great all inclusive formula if you want stuff for hooves as well.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08665170020323796310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-52371353161094311.post-280326396015616072010-06-09T09:39:20.237-07:002010-06-09T09:39:20.237-07:00So, Pia's SmartPack is quickly getting longer ...So, Pia's SmartPack is quickly getting longer than my arm.. but she looks stunning and stays healthy on it.. here's her Daily Dose:<br /><br />Smart Digest Ultra: did you know that 60% of horses on stall rest develop ulcers?? yeah, terrifying, worth its money in my mind.. especially for my Wobbler.<br /><br />Recovery EQ: I keep her on this for joints and any rehab. It's expensive but if you break down the ingredients you get a lot of bang for your buck. It promotes healing, and I wouldn't dream of going through our next vet procedures without it.<br /><br />E-5000: Straight Vitamin E, no other vits or minerals. She's on 10,000 IU daily, which in theory helps neurological issues. (yay).<br /><br />Mare Magic: cause lord knows I need all the help I can get...<br /><br />Bug Check: Not everyone in the barn is on this, which I know ups it's effectiveness. But Pia is extremely thin skinned and it seems to keep the biting flies off of her without tons of flyspray. no more itchy bumps..Ginghamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06677667981067220682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-52371353161094311.post-84317200994096659882010-06-09T08:21:53.462-07:002010-06-09T08:21:53.462-07:00Yes, cutting out sugary feeds and alfalfa may help...Yes, cutting out sugary feeds and alfalfa may help her out.

Right now Ella is on Farrier's Formula for her feet, she been on it for about 4-5 months and I have already noticed a difference w/ growth and her feet showing more concavity. I didn't think I'd notice a difference but I really have!<br /><br />From what I've read, Cosequin seems to be one of the only joint supplements that has had a lot of research and tests showing it actually does work. Others might but I haven't found the info. It looks like the main issue w/ the joint supplements is that they have the ingredients needed, but they aren't being absorbed. <br /><br />I read this blog post http://www.behindthebitblog.com/2010/06/undenatured-collagen-ii-new-research.html and started looking into this side of things. Then I thought maybe I would put Ella on Grand HA for the undenatured collagen and Glucosamine XL plus. <br /><br />Then I also read on this vet page that if you are feeding her a good quality feed then you shouldn't have to supplement them with vitamins because the feed should be providing all they need... <br /><br />Who knows... I wish we had the answers! I'll let you know if I find anything good :) I'm trying to get my SmartPak order together as I type this!!Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10984295912656964300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-52371353161094311.post-62468211254532422922010-06-09T04:45:34.163-07:002010-06-09T04:45:34.163-07:00I absolutely love SmartPaks and so does my barn ma...I absolutely love SmartPaks and so does my barn manager! Panache gets Cosequin, SmartHoof, and SmartShine in her Purina Strategy feed. I'm not sure if the Cosequin really helps or if it just makes me feel good, but I've had her on it since I bought her. I have noticed her hoof wall growth has gotten better with the SmartHoof, so that's a positive. Not convinced yet about the SmartShine, but it certainly isn't hurting anything. If Denali doesn't need grain to keep weight on then maybe you could decrease and/or eliminate that to help her temperment.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15321118722150772797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-52371353161094311.post-10226655129837516192010-06-08T17:44:17.660-07:002010-06-08T17:44:17.660-07:00B1 is good.
