We thought the product was so good that we trialled it with the more feral ponies on the moors up in mid Cornwall, when they were due to see the farrier. There are 7 ponies in particular who the farrier has not been able to trim, although fortunately, their hooves have always been good and trimmed naturally by the terrain they live on. In mid-Cornwall there is a cattle crush to help with farrier and vet inspections, and the ponies are walked through this even if they won’t allow anyone near them, simply to help with desensitising them. On the first farrier day, our farrier trimmed 20 feral ponies, and was really surprised at how well the pet remedy worked as he watched nervous ponies sniffing the pet remedy I’d sprayed just inside the front of the cattle crush, and putting their noses on my arm where I’d also sprayed some. On day 2 we had the 7 very nervous ponies, so this time our farrier decided to rub a little pet remedy on his hands. Ad the ponies came into the crush, he reached out to give them a quiet touch to calm them, then rubbed their muzzles. The results were amazing – he was able to attend to all 7 ponies for the very first time. They only allowed him to lift their front hooves and trim them, but our farrier is confident that by using pet remedy the ponies will be calm enough to learn that he won’t hurt them, allowing him to progress to trimming their back hooves. Needless to say both our farrier and the staff at the mid Cornwall reserve, will all be using Pet Remedy in future.
