"Our three senior horses love the powder mixed into their wet feed. I never had any problems getting it to mix or getting them to eat it. Their coats got shiny, their eyes more alert and even their hooves seemed stronger and to have more balanced wearing patterns. Our off the track racehorse came to us with flat soles to the point where he couldn't walk on his feet without a lot of pain and he was skinny for 16H. This is so much better now and I credit the SmartVite and the MVP 4-in-1 for the change, along with Equis Sweet Grains from my local feed store. Thanks so much to SmartPak for continuing to offer these great products!"

"I was determined to find a excelent vitamin and mineral suppliment for my older mare, that would meet all her needs and be affordable for my budget. I compared many different kinds of suppliments with other brands but always came back to the SmartVite Senior. I talked to a representative from SmartPak who answered all my questions and decided that SmartVite Senior was the way to go. I still work my mare often so I knew she needed the extra support and SmartVite has done just that. She has great flexability and movement and I couldn't be happier with the product! Thanks so much SmartPak!"

"I have a 24 year older horse with breathing problems; I order the Smart Vite Senior and Smart Breath. She is doing a lot better and has gained weight back and will trot up to the barn for dinner! The Smart Vite Senior smells like Play-Doh and is a large scoop / day, but she eats it!"

"My 23 year old pony, Skye, has been on SmartVite Senior for a year. He is in light work and giving a few lessons to the very beginers. He is kind and quiet for his little girls but moves right off my leg. He was recently taken to an away show and when an older student's horse was too upset to go in a classs, Skye took her around the hunt course in great style and they placed first. He showed great energy and enthusiasm. We were all proud of the old boy! His vitamins and lots of love are keeping him young."

"My senior was losing weight but once I put her on this supplement she began putting the weight back on. The SmartPaks are easy for the barn owner/manager to dispense without the cncern of mix up or of missing doses."

"The quality of this product is excellent. I noticed a difference in body tone and coat shine almost immediately. However, my two senior horse do NOT like it. It takes them 2-3 grain feedings in order to finish each packet. (I do not waste it--what they leave in the bottom of the bucket is put into the next grain feeding until they finish it.) Could you make the supplement more palatable?"

"Within three weeks, I saw a real difference in the overall appearance and performance of my 28 year old Arabian mare. She is back out on trails and raring to go. She is more limber than she has been in years. Her mane is growing fuller and her coat looks great. She didn't like the taste at first but we started putting the corn oil on the food and then the supplement. Mixing it well, she soon was cleaning her dish."

"I needed to put Gus on a multi-vit to help balance out his hay and grain diet. After doing lots of comparisons (thanks SmartPak for the comparison charts!) I decided to go with SmartVite Senior - at half dose.

I found it to be an excellent product that seemed to be consistant, month to month. The only down falls is that Gus is getting older, and pickier. So we needed to wet down his grain to be sure he'd actually eat his supps (since most are powder). No issues whatsoever otherwise."

My 30-year-old is starting a 2nd career! September 26, 2008

"I recently found my very first horse (whom I had sold 10 years ago) listed as "free to a good home" on the internet. I immediately took him back. He is now 30 years old. When I got him, I thought he had Cushing’s Disease. He was shaggy, in poor condition, and was listless. I put him on SmartVite Senior and in less than 6 months he is now the same fat, shiny, happy horse that he was 10 years ago, and next week he is starting his 2nd career as a lesson horse! I couldn't be more pleased."

Unpalatable to my non-fussy horse May 12, 2008
By lyn cole from IL, USA
Share this Review: Facebook Digg DelIcioUs
"When my normally-non-picky horse would not eat his grain/beet pulp meals with a full serving of the SmartVite Senior, I had it divided into a.m. and p.m. half-servings. He reluctantly ate those until recently, when he refused to eat his meals with the vitamins added. Since I again halved the amounts I add to his meals, he's back to cleaning up. The vitamins may be superior, but that's of little use if the horse won't eat them!"

"My 28 yr old QH gelding has been on Focus SR for the last 8 yrs and I thought it was great. Even before the FOCUS, he always had problems with loose stools in winter. Vet could find no problems. Switched to this product in November and after one month, his problems cleared up for the first time in 9 years! His coat and energy level have improved too. And he is only on half dosing! Will never switch back."

"My 22 year old Arab/QH cross has been shinier, happier and more like the horse I bought 12 years ago!!! The only downside to the product is the volume-my mare didn't like it the first few days but now licks her plate clean! I recommened SmartVite Senior to any owner who wants their older horse to act young again!"

"This is an outstanding formulation for the older horse. All the necessary nutrients (properly balanced), with essential fatty acids, digestive support and high quality protein sources/amino acids. When I saw how comprehensive this product was, I was shocked at the low cost. Thank you SmartPak!"
