The devil’s claw supplement has been nothing short of a miracle! My mare hadn’t felt quite right for a while and I suspected it was just age related as she was nearly 17. I put her on the supplement to just see if it would help and within a couple of days she was so much happier in her work, extending her gaits and just moving so much more freely. She will be staying on it for good :-)

My old horse Only been on it a short time but Def seems more comfortable,  thinking of putting my other horse on it to see if it helps him, never used it before but pleased with results so far

Speedy delivery, cannot comment on scope of product as only been feeding a week, however being eaten & horse doesn’t think she’s being poisoned so can only be a positive.

I find for my oldies movement and comfort in arthritic limbs a better choice than painkillers from the vet. It seems to make a real difference without drugs, I would recommend it especially for the older horse

So far so good, he eats it which is good!  Early days yet but I do think he’s not weight shifting as much as before so all positive at the moment.

My 27yr old ex racehorse seems much happier and comfortable since using devil's claw.
Would certainly recommend trying it.

Now seems less stiff and more than happy to gallop round the field getting covered in mud!

Can I feed this when I compete under rules?

Devil’s Claw is not allowed under competition rules and should not be fed for at least 2 weeks prior to competing.

 

Is it safe to feed this when my horse has gastric issues? 

It is not recommended to feed Devils Claw to horses with gastric problems, as it is thought to increase stomach acid production.

 

My horse seems to have both muscle and joint issues: is this what you would recommend or would Activet or Boswellia be a better option?

For joint and muscle support we would recommend feeding ActiVet.
