Electro-Boost for Stamina & Performance
Since the start of the 2002 season, Hot Shot has been on Ortho-Equine’s Electro-Boost and Oxy-Oats. These products have given him stamina and improved performance. I use and recommend both products in my practice.

Comfort Boots & Electro-Boost
I have used Ortho-Equine products since January. I have found that the boots provide excellent support to my horses. I like that it can be hot outside and the boots keep my horses’ legs cool. I use the Electro-Boost as well. The first time I used it was when my horse was starting to tie up the night before I was up at the Denver Stock show. I gave him the Electro-Boost, and was able to use him the next morning. That was amazing. Usually when he ties up, he is out a few weeks. I have used Electro-Boost ever since. I use it when I travel, when it is hot, and when I know that my horses are going to be used pretty hard. I really like not worrying about my equipment.

Comfort Boots for Competition
My name is Chris Steiner. I run with the American West 4D in California. I was fortunate and lucky enough to win 3rd in the 3D average at the Wine Country Classic in Clements, CA and won a pair of the Comfort Boot sports medicine boots. I just want to say THANK YOU!!! You have a great product. Before I won this pair, I had purchased a set the day before and ran my second consecutive placing run (placed 3rd in 3D both days). Thanks again for sponsoring this event by donating your product.

Comfort Boots for Cool Style
My name is Nancy Campiche and I’m from Washington District 8. My mare is “Roja” and she is the first horse in our district to sport the new NBHA sport boots and are we ever getting attention! I got her the red, white and blue boots and everyone loves her new look. More importantly, her legs really stay cooler and she doesn’t fuss with them on. I think they must boost her confidence because right after I bought these, she debuted into racing and won her first championship blanket in the 4-D from a mini-series at Red Barn Arena in Long Beach, Washington.

Comfort Boots for Barrel Racing
Bailey Jo and I are running 3 competition barrel horses in your Ortho-Equine boots. We like the light weight and ease of putting them on a horse. We also feel that we are getting the protection we require and are extremely pleased about how cool these keep our horses’ legs. Thank you for creating such a good product.

Immediate Response Paste for Colic
I was lucky enough to have picked up a tube of IMMEDIATE RESPONSE from Brian at the Tulsa NBHA show on Friday morning, then low and behold one of my horses coliced that very afternoon. I gave him the tube of IMMEDIATE RESPONSE and within an hour he was feeling better. He started moving around and drinking again. I was thankful for such a great product.

Finally, A Cinch that Works
I have a 15-year-old gelding that I am running barrels. He has been one of the hardest horses to fit a saddle on because he is very wide and flat backed. Saddles roll on him terribly. The neoprene cinches worked okay but were so hot. Finally, I found a cinch that works. The Ortho-Equine cinch is not hot and yet has a great deal of grip. I don’t have to cut him in two and my saddle doesn’t roll at all. We got one for my husband to use on his rope horses and he loves it also. These cinches are great! They are comfortable and easy to take care of and keep clean. I recommend them highly and use them on a variety of horses from older rodeo horses to young colts.

Boots Provide Security for Barrel Horses
We purchased two complete sets of boots and are extremely happy with the quality and sense of security your boot offers our barrel horses. Thanks again for a wonderful product that offers us a piece of mind while we are competing knowing that we are giving our equine athletes the best protection on the market today.

No sweat - no dirt
The boots worked great on my little mare in the final run at the world show for NBHA! We placed 9th in the senior class! It was a good thing that I purchased the boots! They helped “Aguilas Elegance!” No sweat – No dirt!

Straps that hold up
Thank you for introducing me to the Ortho-Equine Boots for my mare Blessing. If you remember, she would completely tear apart her back boots and I was replacing them all the time. With the strap on the Ortho-Equine boots she has had the same boots for months now. I like the support the boots have offered her and use them on my geldings front legs as well.

Electro-Boost to Recover Quickly
I just love the Electro-Boost product put out by Ortho-Equine. I started Moe and the product at the Heartland Nationals held in Wichita, KS. I have seen a big improvement in his ability to recover after his runs. Moe has EPSM, Equine Polysaccharide Myopathy, and is on a very strict diet. This diet had to include some kind of Electrolyte to keep him from not getting dehydrated when running. I have been looking for a good electrolyte for months now and none of them have given the necessary results. Electro-Boost has allowed him to run hard, recover quickly and keep hydrated so that he can run the next day.

Electro-Boost for Allergies
A few months ago, I purchased your Oxy-Oats and Electro-Boost for my 13yr old barrel horse who suffers from allergies and heaves. His symptoms never became severe until after moving out into the country last year. He developed a lung infection last summer and after several visits I was informed that he suffered from allergies and heaves. The vet said that he was at the time functioning on about a 60% oxygen level. I spent most of the summer getting him well. This year I though we were in the clear and he was back to normal. Our first two shows he did awesome. No fits at the gate, no fighting me, good patterns. Then all of the sudden he started throwing fits at the gate, began fighting me and was just being a stinker. I began noticing how flared his nostrils became after workouts and how long it took him to recover. I thought to myself “You know if I couldn’t breathe, I too would be throwing fits at the gates and fighting anybody who trying to make me work.” So I was looking in my Valley Vet Catalog for something to help with allergies and heaves. I came across your products and decided to give them a try. I am so glad I did. I can’t believe the difference they have made in and for my horse. The first time I used the Electro-Boost was at a State Finals in Topeka. I was apprehensive about using it for the first time because I was unsure of the results I would get. My horse is high spirited and I was afraid it would even make him more high spirited. So the next day, I gave him the Electro-Boost. As I was warming him up and our time to run drew near, I couldn’t believe how cooperative and calm he was being. I even began to think something was wrong with him. I told my father, I didn’t know what kind of run we would have because he was almost being a dead head. My time to run came and as I approached the alleyway, NO FIT. He didn’t fight me and we had a great run. My “Good Horse” was back. After his run he wasn’t breathing as hard, no flared nostrils and his recovery time was incredibly fast. I decided to give your products more time before I wrote you and told how they were working for us. Thanks for such great products. P.S. I forgot my Electro-Boost at one show and I sure won’t make that mistake again. His breathing was still okay and his recovery time was good but he threw another fit. Next show, he got his Electro-Boost and No fit. HMMM…figure that out.
