Jimmy's amazing recovery thanks to KelatoGEN
Kathy from VIC tells how KelatoGEN helped save her 3 year old gelding, Jimmy:
"When he injured himself on Australia Day 2011, we were told there was a high probability that he may not make it, and that if he did he may never be a riding horse. He had a ring bark injury to the bone on his off side hind leg just below the hock, and managed to sever the major extensor tendons in the process. Following 6 weeks of treatment and numerous veterinary consultations we were facing the very real possibility of having to consider putting him down. The wound was not healing, in fact it appeared to be getting worse.
We were on the verge of making the heart breaking decision to put him down when a friend came to us about a new product she had heard about - KelatoGEN.
At this point we decided it was worth one last try, however as we had tried numerous other products already we were initially sceptical. We tried the product anyway and noticed an immediate improvement. The wound was shrinking and healing up, it was amazing!

I am recommending it to all my horse friends, it is fantastic!" |
Seven months after the initial accident, Jimmy is at the breakers and is going along nicely.
"I had a horse dropped off today and the people worked him to the point of exhaustion (literally!) to get him on the float. A couple of hours after
arriving he started showing colicy symptoms - not looking good. I gave him ½ a tube of MuscleGUARD and within 10 minutes he was up and walking and picking grass – looking much better now thanks to Kelato!"

"I had noticed on the other joint supplements that my horse was very stiff after being boxed at overnight shows or would often rest the leg in the paddock. He would also sometimes ‘drop’ in the hindquarters when cantering due to the ligaments around the joint not being strong since the operation.
After 2 weeks on NutriFLEX I noticed Otto wasn’t resting his hind leg in the paddock. The following weekend he performed extremely well and took me to winning the Intermediate Rider of the Year at the Show Horse Council Horse of the Year and was also top 5 Intermediate Hack of the Year in strong competition. After being in the box the night before at the Werribee I was expecting him to be very stiff walking out in the morning as he has been before, but to my surprise he wasn’t stiff at all.
NutriFLEX has not only kept his joints mobile but it has also strengthened his ligaments noticeably. I have continued feeding Otto NutriFLEX and couldn’t be happier with the proven results. I am also pleased to report that I find it extremely economical and pleasant to feed unlike many other supplements that have that fishy smell."

"Last year I won the junior championships at Nambour Grand Weekend of Jumping and the prize included a pack of Kelato products. I won two bags of , HoofPRIME and AminoGLOSS. I started feeding my horse KelatoVIT optima and noticed a big difference in her coat and weight as she is not very good at keeping weight on. I also used HoofPRIME and her hooves were always in good condition and it was nice enough to use at the shows. I then started using AminoGLOSS to wash them for the shows, and it made their coats shiny, soft and clean and also smelled really nice."

My horse had terrible greasy heel, badly encrusted and hot and swollen. Medicated shampoos were not helping at all.
She has been getting the QuikHEAL applied every night for the past 3, and the improvement is massive! Most of the scabbing has come off and the skin underneath is healthy and pink, very minimal loss of hair with the scabbing too.
Extremely happy with results and how fast it works! Still on the mend but it won't be long now :)
Thanks Kelato!

"Your Evolve wormer is awesome! Being smaller it’s easier to get into the mouth of my old and young horse, plus it’s easy to push the plunger so it’s all over with quickly. They don’t seem to mind the taste either - my young horse won’t leave me alone when I’m trying to worm the older horse and thinks he’s missing out on a treat!"

"I can say by far ZanoBOLIC has been the best supplement I have used for weight gain and topline. I own an Appaloosa gelding galloway that came to me very thin and no topline. I used ZanoBOLIC and noticed the difference within 2 weeks. My horse became a new horse - added muscle and topline, shine in his coat and constant weight. I've received so many compliments from competitors on how well his condition has blossomed and explained I have ZanoBOLIC to thank. I still use it every day in the evening feed. Thankyou for such a great product!"

"My Barrel Racing mare recently suffered from a very mild case of tying up; thank goodness it was a mild case. This has never happened before to any of my horses so you can imagine my surprise. We had been travelling and competing since November last year and at our last Rodeo for the year at Easter her attitude and disposition changed dramatically considering the previous weeks of competition and her performance had been outstanding. She was girthy and quite sour in her attitude and was looking quite tucked up which I knew was not normal, her last competition run was to say at the least very very bad and I had to get off her and lead her out of the arena as she wouldn't calm down or even settle enough to leave the arena calmly.
We had another Rodeo the next day from which I had to vet her out she was very sore and irritable. Once we returned home I immediately went to my stock feed agent and purchased a tub of LoosenUP. I had my Bowen therapist out the same day also. My mare has been on this for 2 weeks now and also had this time off to recover and the improvement is definitely visible. She is relaxed, all her muscles are soft and supple again and her length of stride has returned. She looks less stressed and the shine has returned to her coat. This will now become a regular supplement in her daily feed, as it will with all my barrel horses.
I would recommend this to anyone with performance horses of any type. My friend is now actually going to supplement her BR horses feed with LoosenUP also. No trouble mixing it in her feed and there is no smell or taste and she is a fussy eater but cleans all her feed up completely. Absolutely ecstatic with her recovery!!"

"SwellDOWN is by far the best product of it's kind currently on the market. We use it wrapped and unwrapped depending on which treatment we are using. When we use it unwrapped, we chill it in the fridge first. It has worked wonders on our horses for years, it also works on people! Many a time we have used it on rolled or sprained ankles. Keep up the good work guys, this product is fantastic!"
