Meet So Be It Carlos – a 2.5-year-old KWPN stallion who arrived at a new stable completely wild and unhandled.
Thanks to the support of Hempqualizer, it was possible to start working with him safely – his first calm walk, quiet hoof trimming, and gradual human contact.
So Be It Carlos
Age: 2.5 years
Sex: Stallion
Breed: KWPN
Background:
Carlos was purchased at an auction and arrived at the stable completely feral, with no prior human contact.
For safety and veterinary reasons, he had to undergo box quarantine to minimize infection risk.
Confinement and lack of interaction caused high levels of stress and anxiety.
Symptoms / Problems:
-
Significant box anxiety and defensive reactions to human presence
-
Could not be haltered or touched
-
Aggressive responses when led – rearing, pulling away, bolting
-
Unable to perform any basic care procedures
As he had no previous handling, no other calming methods were used. However, immediate action was required to begin safe training.
Effects of Hempqualizer:
Carlos received 4 ml of Hempqualizer one hour before walking.
Results:
-
Walks became possible – no rearing or pulling away
-
He allowed himself to be led calmly
-
First hoof trimming went smoothly – he lifted his legs calmly, without panic or aggression
Summary:
Hempqualizer significantly supported Carlos's early adaptation to his new environment.
It reduced stress, made safe handling possible, and allowed for crucial first care procedures.
A key tool for safe, step-by-step socialization of a previously untouched horse.
