Have only recently started using this (in addition to Best Flex) but my horse is really bouncing about with it. I found Feedmark to be a much more cost effective solution than some of the other brands.

Feedmark Devil's Claw is excellent quality, as are all their products and it helps keep my 18 year old pony fit and still enjoying success at jumping or dressage competitions twice a month with his 10 year old jockey.

I would definitely recommend Devils claw my boys mobility is 95 percent better he will always have a problem but this will keep him comfortable.

Horse finds this palatable and a low feed rate ensures that despite mild arthritis he stays comfortable.

Does help my veteran slightly arthritis horse with fast work and jumping.

Always found it to be effective and only down side is the very fine powder puffs up into the air when putting it into feeds.
Best alternative to bute

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.
