This stuff is great
I've been dissappointed by so many supplements, but this stuff is great. After about 5 days, her cough went away. She has increased energy (probably because she can breathe). It's kind of expensive, but that horrible cough isn't waking me up at night.

It works!
I switched to SmartBreathe Ultra a little over two months ago and I am so glad I did! My mare has heaves and finding a supplement that helps and she is willing to eat has been a struggle. This is the first one I've tried that she has willingly consumed and that actually seems to be helping - I haven't heard her cough at all for over a month! Thank you SmartPak!

Seeing positive results
My horse has been eating this for a couple of months. He is noticeably
less nasally. Everyday he used to sound as if his nose was congested like Darth Vader and this was at rest and exercising. He’s not 100 percent but far from how he was before. This very palatable for my picky eater! I rate the quality as four stars due the cDDGs in this product.

Helps with heaves
I rescued a senior horse, found deserted in a field. He has heaves. I didn't want to resort to steroids to help him, wanted something more natural. Talked to a vet and she suggested this product. It really has helped him! The weather is cooler in FL right now, so that probably helped too.

Tried for 3 months no difference!
Tried this for three months because that is what they say to do, to give it three months to work and zero difference. My horse gets seasonal allergies, cough and sometimes breath’s heavier than normal I thought this might help. Just wasted money! I just now switched to “heave hoe” and three DAYS in cough is gone and breathing totally normal again!
Don’t waste your time and money on this smartbreath doesn’t work at all.

So far...so Good!
This is our 2nd month using this product. My mare had a horrible episode with heaves at the end of August. She is now breathing better, and not using her inhaler daily. The first month I purchased the bag, the second month I got the SmartPaks. SmartPaks are definitely the way to go. Less mess, and accurate measuring!

Works Great!
Our horse started to "cough" during the show season so we checked out SmartPak and found the SmartBreathe pellets. They worked great! We could tell a difference right away! He doesn't seem to cough anymore and performed much better. We can tell a difference in his behavior.

Great taste
My horse turns her nose up at new tastes in her feed. She relishes this one.

WOW! WOW! WOW!
My horse had pneumonia and a collapsed lung. We got through it, but allergens cause his lungs to become aggravated and immune system to fail. I was told this supplement will take at least 4-6 weeks to work. We are on week 3 and seeing evidence of increased immune system and better breathing.

An absolute savior
If I could hug every single person that had a hand in creating this product I would. My gelding has been on this product for a little over a year at this point for his heaves. Prior to this he was getting dex every other day to manage his breathing and coughing. Since starting this product he has never needed dex again, he is not coughing, and his breathing is so good even a new vet had no idea he had heaves. He's not a huge fan of the flavor so I do need to mask it in slightly with his other feed but once I do he eats it fine. Would highly recommend!

I bought this a month ago and it has helped tremendously with her breathing. I also water down her hay as well. She is basically normal.

My mare has the beginning stages of heaves and each spring her cough gets extremely bad. I hate giving her steroids, so I tried this. It is helping her!

Helps My Mare Breathe Easy
This supplement is a perfect choice to give my mare comprehensive respiratory support. In addition to a management program and medication from her vet, this product helps to maintain her lung health. My mare struggles with seasonal allergies and warmer weather can really be a challenge for her. Adding this product to her SmartPaks was an easy choice for me, given the combination of ingredients in the formula. It combines traditional choices like MSM with the more unique spirulina and researched DHA. I love that I can get all of this support for her in one easy-to-feed supplement. Even though my mare is picky she will eat these pellets with her grain. If you're looking for top-notch daily support for respiratory health, I highly recommend this formula!

My horse went off her feed
I bought this as my horse has heaves, she’s usually not a super picky eater but this made her take 30 minutes to finish her grain every feeding and after 4 weeks she still didn’t like it so i stopped feeding it. Just pay a little extra and buy Heave Ho because it’s flavored and is proven to work.

Love this product
Anyone that live in a fire/smoke area needs this product. This was the third year for smoke and fires in my area of CA. Once we were able to get back to work this year I noticed better recovery time than in years past.

Smelly !
Bought this because the regular Smart Breathe pellets were not working. However, when I opened the bag, the first thing I noticed was the very strong smell ! My horse would not eat it and started to shake his head to get rid of what was in his mouth. Since my horse will not touch it, I cannot rate it as to the quality.

Great Product
I have had my mare on this for a few years now, off and on. Every time I take her off, she has an episode with her breathing. I have to say, this product must work or it's a coincidence...I'm ordering the bucket on auto ship, she will probably live on this product the rest of her life. I tried the SmartBreathe without the "ultra" and she didn't do real good on it, so I upgraded to the Ultra and will stay with it. I mix with her grain and she eats it up.

Containes USEF prohibited substances
I send the ingredient list to the USEF to confirm it was safe for show horses. This is what I got back: Under USEF rules, the supplement you sent is prohibited because it contains astragalus. Therefore, it should not be used in the seven days leading up to competition.
Please let me know if you are competing under rules other than USEF or have any other questions.

Helped So Much
My horse has Heaves and living in the south his summers are horrible. The SmartBreathe Ultra helped so much this year. I could tell after feeding his breathing improved. He still has heaves but I think that this product has helped him tolerate the heat and humidity a lot better than last year. Oh also he is a very picky eater and he had no problems with the pellets.

Helping to breathe
This is our second order. They seem to be helping although he still coughs but we're hoping the second round does much better

SmartBreathe has been a life saver for my American Saddlebred. Smartbreathe has enabled us to take him off of prescription meds to control his allergy coughing. Even on the worst humid summer days, his breathing is remarkable compared to before using this product. Just amazing how within 2 months the breathing issues calmed down.

My horse hates the taste
He won't touch any of his feed if this is mixed in. He would rather eat hay rather than try to work around this supplement. I am going to switch back to the regular Smart Breathe and see if that works. Meanwhile, I have more than a month's worth of supplements my horse won't eat.

no difference noted
I have been using this now on my mare now for 5 months. to be honest...I have seen no difference. It is expensive, so i figured i would give it at least several months to make my decision. my mare is recovering from tie back surgery and tends to get a little bit of seasonal inflamation per my vet. so we decided to give this a try.
for the $250 i spent over 5 months i wish i would have went on the perscription ani-hisamine/ resp health through my vet.
my mare ate it fine, she is not a picky eater AT ALL.

My horse won’t eat it
I can’t say how helpful this is as my horse won’t eat it. She actively avoids it in her grain. I tried for 2 months but she’s still refusing it. Switching back to the normal smartbreathe as she seems to eat that okay.

Just didn’t work for her
My mare gets seasonal allergies. In the summer and sometimes spring she will get a cough my vet did give me a prescripted anti histamine powder that does help but sometimes they are out of that and have to wait till they get more in or sometimes she is fussy about eating that stuff so isn’t a fan of powders no matter what you mix it with in her grain, so I tried looking for other things for when I don’t have anything and came across this and had to try it! She is a very picky eater and she ate this with no problems I had her on it for two months with her cough and I noticed she slightly was maybe coughing a little less but still had that horrible allergy cough I ended up taking her off this because it is pricey and just getting her back on her prescription anti histamine and got her eating that and her cough seems a lot better. Maybe for the early spring I could try seeing if this would work for her I will update than but for starting in mid summer when her allergy was at it’s worse it didn’t work unfortunately
