"I ran out of SmartCalm Ultra paste before a big event, and grabbed a tube of this at my local feed store (paid double the SmartPak price, too, btw). I gave it to my little mare 2 hours prior to our cattle clinic and was VERY happy with the results. She normally gets very "amped up" when working cattle, but after the paste, she was focused and controllable. She responded to my cues and was not "dopey". We both had a much more positive experience! Highly recommend, if you have a horse that just needs the edge taken off, in order to focus on the task at hand."

"Even though my horse (16yr old Appy gelding) has seen fireworks every year, he still gets excited and races around the pasture when the neighbors start setting them off. This year, I decided to try Quietex paste and I'm so glad I did! By the time it was dark and the fireworks started, he was totally calm and just looked around like "oh, cool..." occasionally and went back to grazing. He wasn't so out of it that he was stumbling, in a daze or unable to walk without tripping. It was just the right amount to take the edge off, and he could still function like normal. He didn't have any adverse reactions to it and I will be using it again next July!!"

"Before we trailered our nervous Arabian mare to a jumping show, we gave her Quietex Paste. After an hour's drive, she unloaded well, and my granddaughter entered the arena with a calm horse. We will be using it for all the shows. It really works."

"Works well to help settle or take the edge off your horse. I use it more in the spring when we begin trailering our horses to shows to keep them calm."

"I've used both the paste and powder. I used the paste for my horses first horse show. Hes an Appendix and has a very nervous personality. Anything different works him up. I gave him to this on a basically empty stomach before he got on the trailer. I put him on the trailer and he was a nut, once we drove to our destination he came off a big puppy dog. Very calm, but still alert and had his energy. He hates being alone, and freaks out at anything new. He was an ANGEL, i think i had more nerves then him. Our first class was AWESOME, he was attentive and not at all spooky or jittery. Even in line up he stood there and just looked at the others like "hey, there... hi". I showed once after and did not use this paste.. I've learned, always a very handy product. Empty stomach and long trailer ride, and your good to go :)"

"I only tried this once (so far) and it did seem to take the edge of my gelding. But, it didn't seem to get as good of results as other people's reviews. I will try it again to see if I get better results."
