Horse Of The Week - Belle.

Our new Horse Of The Week is Belle, she is owned by Samantha James. Samantha told us: “I am not entirely certain of Belle’s breeding, but the general consensus is that she is Clydesdale cross with a Welsh, and she stands at 14.2hh. I have owned her now for 18 and a half years. She enjoys her work, especially hacking out and jumping, and she will sometimes be calm enough for flat work! I have competed with Belle, in some Dressage and show jumping classes, and also in shows at the livery yard. I would really like to show her though, in some veteran classes. She is a very good girl most of the time, but she does have the devil in her and enjoys bucking and thinking that she’s a racehorse.” “Belle needed respiratory support, after about 8 years ago, after a period of enforced box rest. A friend recommended Feedmark’s Clarity. Belle’s airways improved so much with the Clarity, that she was back to her old self. She was once again acting like a racehorse cross with a Lipizzaner! If I am ever silly enough to run out of Clarity, Belle's breathing becomes noisy again until I have bought some more and she is back on it.” “In March 2015, Belle then started to get puffy legs.  After resting her she improved, and I brought her back into work. Then in August 2015, I found that the left hind developed the same problem, only worse. After the success I had with Clarity, I looked to Feedmark for a possible answer and found No Fill. The ingredients in the No Fill really helped get her leg back to normal. I now have my girl back in slow work again, so hopefully my plans for showing her this year are still on! Thanks to Feedmark, Belle still thinks she’s a 5-year-old.” A FREE tub of No Fill is on its way to Belle for being our Horse Of The Week!
