...We
acquired "Indy" in November 1997 after originally being on loan. At the
time we were told that he had a damaged lower leg and had to have Codlivine , Zerobute and
Inflamaze supplements to help in his movement; as he stumbled frequently whilst just
walking.
He was then
involved in an accident which needed the vets attendance, x-rays and a warning that he may
well have to be destroyed as it would be kinder! The x-rays, however, showed that
the problem was an old injury that had been mis-diagnosed and no fresh injury had
occurred. He then had to have six months of box-rest and following advice from our
stockist: Red Post Feeds was administered Equilibra in his diet.
Today, 3 years on having since
purchased him, he is on no pain killers, no other supplements, only the Equilibra and his
staple diet!
At this years BSPA National
Championships, he became:
-
British Coldblood Horse Champion
-
1st reserve British Coldblood Champion
(Open)
-
2nd Ridden Traditional Championships
(judged my Mrs.Mary Gordon-Watson)
-
2nd in Traditional Members
Championships
-
and was placed in a further 5
championships at his First attempt at National level.
