Guest blog Sectolin: If your horse needs some extra support
We all know that from time to time our horses could use a little extra help. For example when they lack of energy during shedding season, lack of appetite, after deworming treatment or when they have a general poor health condition. At the stallion Station Van Uytert they also experience this regularly. Besides trying to find out if these horses have real health problems, they immediately give them a dose of vitamins. "It gives them a boost what can offer them just that little bit extra support".
"Recently we had a one and a half-year-old stallion who didn't look good. He had some bald spots and just wasn't feeling well. We had blood tests done but also gave this horse Equivital Paste twice in a row to give him extra support. That, in combination with good feed, helped him get back on his feet", explains Joop van Uytert.
A real boost
Horses that go into training at the stallion station are immediately given a vitamin paste. "It gives a boost because it contains a lot of vitamins. It can make a difference for some horses.".Stallions or competition horses that have to perform well also benefit from Equivital Paste adds Renate van Uytert. "We went to a German horse show with two stallions. They were given a vitamin dose a two months in advance and again a week before the show. The horses were both looking really good at that moment they really had to shine".
Vitamins
In the autumn and winter months, shedding season, after a de-worming treatment, antibiotic treatment, illness or just when a horse can use a little extra help: One dose of Equivital Paste is enough to immediately supplement vitamin deficiencies. There are even eleven different vitamins in Equivital Paste that maintain the condition and prevent the horse from getting a vitamin deficiency. The paste is easy to administer directly into the horse's mouth and administered as and when needed.
