Saved Maggies Life
I have a Halflinger that suffered a serious injury in Sept. She severed her front right tendon. Her old owners wanted to put her down, but she told me she wasn't ready so I took her into my care. Once the wound itself healed up I found out about these pellets. I am not sure if it was just a coincidence, but a week into a regiment of these pellets and me staying consistent with my rehab routine, She is no longer on stall rest and soon I think I can let her go inside and outside as she pleases.

Too early to tell, but less stiffness
I bought this product as a backup to the joint supplement my 17 year old mare is receiving because the hereditary issue she has is due to tendon weakness, causing her ankles to swell and become unable to stand upright. She's been on this product for about a month, and I don't notice her standing holding her leg up as often, and the swelling has gone done some. She will never recover from this issue unfortunately, but she is definitely more comfortable than she was a year ago.

Ingredients Necessary for Ligament Support
My horse suffered a ligament strain and needed a supplement that contained collagen and other buikding blicks for strong ligaments. This supplement is specially formulated to provide support for an injured kugament. I have noticed marked improvement since using this product.

So far so good!
My mare sustained a minor inflammation on her OSL this past summer so I decided to help her rehab along, I put her on the Tendon Repair from Ramard. After using it for a couple months having her on it, I decided to switch her to the SmartPak product because its cheaper and it has many of the same components. At this point I’m not sure if anything is making a difference but it gives me piece of mind.

Great supplement!
Last March our 23 year old mare injured her tendon. We followed the vets directions and wrapped, etc. My daughter came across these supplements and we thought "why not", right? We began adding them to her daily feedings last May and and haven't stopped yet. We started lightly riding her again in September and she's been doing great! Watching her canter around the pasture this winter I'm hopeful she'll be ready to get back to work this spring. These supplements will continue to be a part of her feeding schedule moving forward.

I believe it works !
I purchased SmartTendon Pellets for my daughters rodeo horse that had bowed her tendon. I believe it's helped her heal to where she will be able to continue to compete.

Nice support
So I bought this about 6 months ago when my gelding injured his tendon, and it helped along the healing process by giving him extra support. Really like it.

Worked well to support recovery!
I started my 3y/o gelding on SmartTendon after he injured his suspensory ligament 8 weeks ago. I noticed less swelling in his leg about a week after starting the supplement. He had an ultrasound again today, and the vet said he is healing really well and to ease him back into work! Originally my vet thought it would take a lot longer for him to be looking this good. Thank you SmartPak for all the research that goes into your products and thank you SmartTendon for supporting my horse's recovery!

Works for my rescue OTTB!
I started this two months ago and have notice better performance in my gelding. He had no tendon issue. I bought this product to protect his legs ( better safe than sorry) in the jumper ring. As I've said there is a better performance from him. I recommend this product completely!

Good product for the price!
I bought this a month ago for a possible ligament/tendon injury. My mare seems to be improving. I purchased a two month supply this time and plan to keep using it. She will eat them from my hand or in her feed.

My daughter's TB mare has chronic swelling in her hind legs (maybe windpuffs?), so we'd thought we'd give this a try... almost immediately we noticed less swelling overall and less swelling after rides... it's nice to not have to put stable bandages on every time she gets ridden..

Great Product!!
I have a 17 year old Appaloosa mare who injured her check ligament this past winter. After 8 weeks of hand walking only, we were allowed to start riding lightly to slowly build her back up. During the 3 month rehab program, she'd have considerable swelling in at the injury site, but no lameness. I happened to stumble upon the SmartTendon supplement while surfing the SmartPak website and was impressed with the reviews, so I decided to give it a shot! I ordered the 2 month supply, and had no issues with swelling once she started taking it!! She is now riding quite well with no swelling even though I have run out of the supplement. I do believe that it made a big difference in our rehabbing! I now have a happy, healthy pony again! Thanks SmartPak!

Great so far
Started using it recently, like it so far. I haven't been using long enough to see a real difference though. My OTTB completely tore his ligament and a tear in his tendon a little over a year ago so I am very cautious of his leg health!

Not Helping Anymore
I had my rescue gelding on this a few months ago and it seemed to really help. I took him off of it and just had him on bute less pellets and Smartpak TLC pellets didn't help. So I tried devil claw only helped a little with extra msm added. So I decided to try this again after a month his popping and cracking worse. After my new order is used up i'll be going to horse.com to try some of their supplements.

good supplement!
This was my second auto shipment of the tendon supplements. My horse is recovering from a horrible trim job that caused strain on her tendons in both front legs. Within a week of having her on the second shipment from the time the pic was taken, we now have done a 5.5 mile ride plus, we are back to trotting and working on our dressage. Good product, horse loves the taste! Definitely, I feel this product has aided in the recovery of her tendons. Pic of her front legs show the swollen tendons on the inside of both legs of which have now healed up. We now have her hooves trimmed up properly and I have a much happier horse! Thanks Smartpak!

hard to tell
My 18 yr old pony had a mild sprain on his tendon and has been on stall rest for 5 weeks so I thought this could not hurt! But who really knows if it helps?!

Amazing results!
I bought this about a year ago when my OTTB gelding was diagnosed with a hind suspensory tear (aggravated an old injury). I also have a Grade gelding who has had some hock issues and would frequently cross-fire at the canter. I decided to put him on this too and he no longer cross-fires at the canter - he's moving better than ever! The OTTB has been put back to work but we're still taking it slow and he's moving really well!

Very palatable.
My dressage horse deals with contracted tendons. This helps him to stay competitive and sound!

Finally getting healing results on tendon tear!
My horse tore his superficial digital flexor tendon last summer. Since then, we've tried rest and PRP. Neither showed any improvements on an ultrasound. 6 weeks ago, we lasered the tear and started him on this supplement. He's finally looking better and the swelling is down for the first time in over 7 months!

Schoolmaster improved!
We started my 21yr old PSG schoolmaster on this supplement a month ago. I bought him for a dollar when someone decided since he had a torn suspensory in his hind and was "worthless" two years later I'm competing PSG with no soundness issues to date. However I felt his impulsion was lacking a little so I figured I would give this a try. I can say now we are receiving consistent 7's and 8's complementing his impulsion. Part to do from good training and workout schedule and I feel strongly part to do from the support this supplement gives. I now have all my competition horses on this product wether they are 4yrs old or 21! Thank you Smartpak another great win!

I bought this a little over a month ago and have been feeding it to 2 horses with tendon injuries. Both are improving! It has been a great supplement to use with other vet recommended therapies

Really helpful!
My 16 y/o polo pony mare has bowed three times, and after the third time I put her on smart tendon. Ever since, her tendons have held up perfectly! The swelling has gone down significantly, and she has no trouble getting around. I will always keep my mare on this supplement!

Happy Trails for Jack!
I have a young QH gelding that was having a issue with his stifles. He has been in the SmartTendon pellet for almost two months and I have seen a difference in his attitude. Only one month in and he wasn't showing any sign of pain and stiffness.

Gets my vote!
My OTTB has old tendon injuries that continually flared up until I put him on SmartTendon over a year ago. Since then he hasn't had one issue!

I give to my senior who has had a bowed tendon in the past and I'm glad to see him being a horse enjoying life running around playing in the field.
