Another Happy Horse and Customer

I have a 21 year old Quarter Horse Mare. Shoulder injury this past summer. She was dead lame! Found Sandy and her Flex Guard. After 6 weeks on this product, she is almost healed. I couldn't believe the difference. I'm looking forward to some trail rides soon!

Tip of the Week!

Instead of deworming on a fixed schedule, collect f***l samples in spring and late summer to target only the horses shedding high parasite loads. This reduces resistance, saves money, and is better for pasture health.

Not to stress anyone out, but the fall is coming and before you know it, people will be talking about blankets.

Blanketing too early in the season can do more harm than good. For a healthy, unclipped horse, their natural coat and metabolism do a great job keeping them warm until temperatures dip below around -7°C (20°F) — or when they’re wet and exposed to wind.

Putting a blanket on too soon can:
- Stop their winter coat from growing in fully
- Cause overheating and sweating under mild conditions
- Trap moisture, leading to skin irritation or rain rot

What about rain sheets?

Rain sheets keep horses dry in wet weather, but they don’t provide warmth. If used on mild days, they can flatten the coat and reduce its insulating ability — leaving your horse colder if temperatures drop later. Save rain sheets for truly wet, windy days when a dry coat will keep them more comfortable.

Let nature do its job until the real cold sets in!

Have you ever been swimming with your horse? It's a great low-impact exercise for the oldies if you can find a nice clean swimming hole! Hurry, the warm days of summer are almost gone.

Ground poles? Yes please!

Adding carrot stretches, belly lifts, and raised pole work a few times a week improves topline flexibility, strengthens stabilizing muscles, and keeps joints supple — especially valuable for performance or aging horses.

Shark Cartilage is used in Flex Guard and we field questions from concerned customers surrounding the ethics of using this ingredient. We want to clear some things up!

Squalus Acanthias Cartilage does have the unfortunate trade name of "Shark Cartilage" but is NOT derived from endangered sharks. Our ingredient comes from the Spiny Dogfish, a species used for food around the world. It is often caught inadvertently in waters around the world and used a cheaper fish, like a haddock. It is a food first, and still in abundance!

The only shark cartilage of use in a nutraceutical capacity comes from spiny dogfish, as it contains the highest level of natural protein. In the 1990s, tests were done with other sharks, and the potency of the cartilage was much poorer, and the cartilage was more difficult to work with. Thus, endangered shark species are not a good source of shark cartilage anyway.

Rest assured that our shark cartilage is a sustainably caught ingredient that does not contribute to the nefarious shark finning industry, nor endanger critical species in any way!

MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) is a naturally occurring source of sulfur — an essential building block for collagen, cartilage, and connective tissue. Here’s why it matters:

Reduces Joint Inflammation- Helps ease stiffness from arthritis, training, or injury.
Supports Recovery- Aids muscle repair after hard work or competition.
Boosts Hoof & Coat Health- Sulfur is key for strong, healthy hooves and a glossy coat.
Powerful Antioxidant- Protects cells from damage caused by exercise and inflammation.

Flex Guard includes a full dose of MSM in every scoop, plus four other ingredients and NO fillers. For more information about this supplement and testimonials from happy horse owners, click through to our website: https://healthyhorsenutrition.ca/products/flex-guard-superior-joint-care

Tip of the Week!

Even a well-fitting saddle can start creating pressure points as your horse’s muscle tone changes with work or season.

Schedule regular checks with a qualified fitter and watch for subtle signs like white hairs, uneven sweat marks, or a change in willingness to move forward.
