My soon to be 16-year-old quarter horse mare is no longer limping and on pasture and hay with her herd mates. The farrier that I had used for years advised me to put her down because she was limping and her left front hoof was growing somewhat crooked. I am not able to get her into a trailer and so she has not been x-rayed. She was very sore on her front feet and would not pick them up for trimming. My farrier quit us without a word!
I found Heiro and I am so very happy that I did. My mare is walking so much better and her hoof, when trimmed, now looks normal. I now have a farrier who trained under an old-time, now retired farrier who was very knowledgeable about laminitis and he also went to shoeing school. So I’m pleased with him. Now he knows about Heiro too!!
Thank you!!

I’m always sceptical, but HEIRO works. No more sore feet, no more abscess! Previously unable to be in pasture at all. Even grazing muzzles didn’t help. I’m still cautious at change of season with fresh grass. Being able to be in pasture, doing what horses do has positive physical & mental well being.
I have 22 yr mini mare with PPID & EMS. This spring her sugar was 400+. I tried medication from the vet with no results. Her laminitis was very bad and she had coffin bone rotation of 3 degrees. I decided it was time to put her down because she had no quality of life. Then I tried her on Heiro and now she is back to normal. No laminitis and back out with the heard on grass for 9 hours a day! This product literally saved my horses life!
we have a mini stallion, Smokey. he foundered three years ago. We started giving him Heiro and our wonderful vet suggested only letting him out to pasture for 6 hours a day (the BEST time to let him out was between 3am and 10am). we keep our herd together so everyone goes out together from 2am and breakfast is at 8am. we have happy, healthy boys!
I've been using Heiro with my 18-year old Arabian mare who has EMS for the past 2+ years. I'm also following Dr Reilly's recommendations for her feed and grazing restrictions to prevent her from developing laminitis. She eats it readily, it is cost-effective and she is remaining sound!
