Panic was his biggest nemesis, and attempts to work with him often ended in tears of helplessness. Barry was skittish, did not respect personal space, and reacted with panic to the slightest stimuli, such as passing cars.
Over the years, various methods were tried to help him, but none brought the expected results. We invite you to read Barry's full story.
BARRY WHITE, 6 YEARS OLD, GELDING
HORSE HISTORY AND DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM:
Barry has been with me since my 18th birthday when I bought him as a young and practically untrained horse. He has a heart of gold, but until recently, we had significant issues.
Panic was his biggest nemesis.
Barry is like a teddy bear, even around children, but we faced severe problems at certain times during work. While standing with him in the paddock, stable, or on the grass, he could behave beautifully. However, when any engagement or focus was required, he would switch to "rebellious mode," turning our interactions into a struggle for survival at times.
The beginning of our work together was tough, and there were moments so discouraging that I returned from the field in tears of helplessness.
He would push into people, not respecting personal space despite various exercises and spending countless hours working, trying different exercises and relaxation massages.
He would spook and be afraid of everything, even a passing car could trigger terrible panic in him.
Barry is healthy, with no illnesses or ailments. Our main problem was his inability to focus; he was extremely skittish and would run away with the rider in the saddle.
After he was trained, we did a lot of exercises, but there came a time when we had a small break from saddle work.
However, after some time, we returned to regular work, and the same problems began to reappear... skittishness, hyperactivity, fear in his eyes, and distraction.
At some point, we decided to try adding other herbal supplements to his diet.
Unfortunately, nothing helped us.
EFFECTS OF USING HEMPQUALIZER+:
At some point, I came across the company Hempqualizer by chance, which sells and produces the product Hempqualizer+. I saw many good reviews that really lifted my spirits when reading them.
I was very surprised by the small dose needed to achieve results.
I decided that this would be our last resort, and it was worth trying. I ordered the product, discussed the dosage with the producer, and we began testing if it would work for us. (By the way, I was very pleased with the excellent contact and interest from the company's representatives.)
In the first weeks, there wasn't a big difference, and I feared it would be another failure. However, after a month, Barry started showing noticeably calmer behavior, and you could see relaxation and tranquility in his eyes and behavior.
Sudden noises in the forest no longer faze him. We train in the round pen without the muscle tensions that used to appear, which we tried to combat with physical therapy. I have also become braver and more confident in the saddle.
We are trying different things and working full steam ahead. Working with him has become genuinely enjoyable like never before. Currently, I administer Hempqualizer+ less frequently, yet it still works flawlessly. I highly recommend it to anyone who is still hesitant to buy it! It’s worth it! ;)
