HORSE OF THE WEEK
LUCKY
"I purchased Lucky, unseen, in 2021. When I arrived to collect him, I found him in a pitiful state. He was significantly underweight and incredibly angry with life and everyone in it.
Working with veterinarians, farriers, nutritionists, and others, we tried to strengthen him enough to scope for ulcers so that we could begin treatment. Eight months after the purchase, we performed the first scoping, and discovered Grade 4 ulcers. The vets treated these for six weeks, after which we went back for another scope. His ulcers had turned hemorrhagic, so another course of treatment was recommended. At his third scoping, he was miserable and clearly in pain. He had lost more weight, so we tried the last option the vets could suggest. Unfortunately, that failed as well, and I was on the verge of giving up completely.
Thankfully, I found an incredible Facebook group that suggested two different supplements to try. We tried the first one, and it caused dramatic changes in Lucky, but he still wasn't gaining weight properly and had bad loose droppings. That's when we switched to EquiNectar. It was a total game changer! Lucky became happier and more relaxed, his droppings solidified and his topline began to improve.
He is now happy and healthy thanks to his fantastic loaner who continues to use EquiNectar. This, coupled with her love and care, has changed him for the better.
I am deeply grateful to the EquiNectar team. You have an amazing product that will no doubt change the lives many horses like mine, where we might have otherwise lost hope. Thank you so much."
