Energy to spare
I added the energy supplement to help a lazy horse that would not pick his feet up. Well, it worked!! Not only does he pick up his feet, he also dances and prances. LOL. So, if you or your horse need more energy, give it a shot.

Nice "Slow Burn"
Really liked this product. I found some of the other energy supplements (RedCell in particular) gave my Haflinger quick energy...he would really SPOOK, then go back to "normal". SmartEnergy gave him a nice steady "slow burn" energy, without the jumpy-ness. Was useful in keeping his energy up during interval work so I could build the fitness and increase energy.

Have noticed an improvement
It has only been about a month since starting this supplement and I have noticed an increase in energy. It has not made him "spooky" as other energy supplements have.

No change yet
I've had her on this supplement for a month and haven't noticed ANY difference whatsoever. I just got a new shipment so we'll see if there are any changes, if not I'll stop giving her this. Ugh

MUST HAVE!
I ride an Irish Sport Horse who knows the world of lazy all two well. The problem was that any food with sugar, such as sweet feed, would send him through the roof and he would get way to jittery. I spoke to a Smartpak representative and they recommended their Smart Energy Pellets. They have been working wonders. My horse has more energy and has completely stayed sane. I love what they are doing for him!

Works the Best!
My trainer had my 19 year old saddlebred gelding on Red Cell for energy this summer. After two months on the liquid, I wasn't noticing much of a difference. I looked up SmartEnergy on a whim and read the reviews of other senior horse owners, many of whom said Red Cell didn't really work for them either.
My boy has been on SmartEnergy for a month now and he's as frisky as he was at 15! He's back to his old self and seems to enjoy our classes again.
I don't know why I tried other supplements. SmartPak supplements always work the best!

Amazing!!
My Percheron cross was as lazy as you can get and would be exhausted after a short while. I put him on SmartEnergy and the results really are amazing. He holds his canter with minimal pushing, where as before he would constantly break stride. He can go for so much longer than previously and recovers so fast! I tire before he does. I have been very impressed with this product and will continue to use it. He also gobbles it right up!!

Very Pleased with this Product
Every summer my horse seems to be more tired than normal. I used to chalk it up to heat, but notice other horses were more peppy. The other reviews on this product were from people with similar problems. Most mentioned past cases of Lyme disease that seemed to reoccur low grade each summer. This product got my horse back to his normal self without an added or unwanted energy. I would highly recommend this product.

Gives Him a Boost
I have a Belgian Draft/Tb, and I think the heat and humidity have sapped his energy a little bit. I thought this might be a good product for him. I have noticed he has been able to work without being so drained afterward. This gives him energy without making him spooky or hot.

I Am So Grateful To SmartPak For Developing This
My mare is extremely finicky, but gobbles up these pellets. More importantly, she suffers from bouts of anemia. I was so excited to find a blood building product that did not contain iron, as I will be able to use it constantly without the worry of iron toxicity. My mare's Packed Cell Volume increased by 10.7 within 30 days of use. SmartEnergy is staying in her SmartPak!

Did the job...
My Perch/Tb cross was petering out way too soon during a workout. He balked midway through a cross country canter w/o jumps. I had increased his feed and he still seemed tired. The SmartEnergy Pellets were the extra oomph that he needed. He enjoys working again.

Better than Red Cell
My horse was acting extremely lethargic this last winter. His blood work came back with both low red and white cell counts and anemic. This seems to be a annual residual effect from an ehrlichiosis infection. In the past Red Cell seemed to help, not this year. I take B-vitamins myself and know the difference in energy levels and thought it was worth a shot. The very first day, his appetite picked up and within a week his energy was normal. He finally put weight on, moves better and has energy for riding. The amazing this is, by accident, he's only getting half the normal dose! Highly recommend for hard keepers, senior horses and those in the northern states.

Amazing Results
After noticing my otherwise fit 20 year old schoolmaster was just ho-humming through his work I decided to try this product. SO glad I did. Before resorting to larger spurs or letting the thought that he was just getting "older" creep into my head I wanted to address his energy level with this. Within 3 weeks he is delightfully forward, attentive and very happy in his work without being hot. LOVE!

Fixed Anemia
Blood work late last summer revealed my mare was anemic, so I put her on this product. This last weekend we were at an eventing clinic and she had so much energy we probably could have made time around an Advanced course. I was wracking my brain, trying to figure out why she was so full of gas. Then it occurred to me she probably wasn't anemic anymore. Blood work two days later showed that yes, her red blood cells are up where they should be. I am happily able to stop this supplement now, because it did what it was supposed to. If we ever have this problem again I'll definitely return to it.

Noticeable Results in a Week
I noticed my gelding was starting to run out of 'gas' towards the end of my rides. At 25 years young and still actively showing I gave SmartEnergy a try. My trainer and I noticed a difference in him within a week. He was much more active during my rides.

Great Product
My Friesian was lacking the "boost" we needed to move up to the next level in dressage. I know he doesnt like indoor work so I blamed his laziness on that. Now that he is on smart energy he seems to enjoy his work more and moves more like we are outside

Gave her a little more 'umph'
SmartEnergy Pallets seemed to have boosted my mares energy. It didn't make her hyper, just gave her a little more 'umph' when competing and riding.

Amazing stuff
When the vet said he was slightly anemic, he said to use vitamins and red cell. So, I did both and he was still a little sluggish. After using the comparison chart and realizing iron may not be what he needs, I started using SmartEnergy, and wow.... he is just like a normal horse with calm energy. He can focus on learning new things now. :) He loves the taste of it too!!! Love it, Thank you SmarkPak

SmartEnergy WORKS!
I started using SmartEnergy a few months ago for my 4 year old quarter horse mare. Zoey was a very lethargic filly, she was so easy going for a young horse. I started barrel racing her and she would get so exhausted after the first run and she wasn't out of shape! I decided to start her on SmartEnergy and with in a week and a half I could see a small difference and now that she has been on it for a few months she has so much energy and she is able to conserve it for barrels. This did not make my horse go crazy she just acts like a normal 4 year old now. At first she wouldn't eat it very well but I don't know if that is the vitamins that are with it or just the energy supplement itself. I fully recommend this!

I gave this to my lethargic horse for two months. All it gave him was loose stools.

Too much energy
I put my very laid back/pokey warmblood on this supplement, but it turned him into a nervous wreck. He could not stand still in the cross-ties, always figity, trying to nip people, etc. He did have more energy when I rode him, but to the point of I was always pulling back on him. 6 days after taking him off of this, he was back to his normal, relaxed, laid back self. It did work, but to the extreme point.

love smartpak
We do love smartpak, however, this product did not make a noticable difference in our horse's energy level. We think he's just a really laid-back horse (and that's ok!).

Happy Horse
I learned last year that my horse had red hemoglobin and red blood cell count, the supplement my vet gave me, smelt like dried blood and looked like coffee grounds. He would not eat it for anything. My horse has been on smart energy for 2 months on 1scp and already his red blood cell and hemoglobin went from the low unhealthy side to the low normal side. My vet said to up it to two scoops, so thats what I am doing and I have seen a huge improvement in my horses stamina!

pellets are the best!
I decided to get the Ultra combo smart pellets that address a variety of needs - easier than all those separate paks!

Great for picky eaters!
I have a half arab that is extremely picky and always runs a little anemic. His energy levels were low before we started this product. Within 1 week I could see a big difference in him. This did NOT make him high strung. It just gave him the get up and go he needs to compete!

The packaging is great.We feed several supplements and if those could be duplicated time and mess would be saved.The cost is so right and would be a savings as well.No worry as to dosage is a plus as well.
