U-Gard does the job
This is my second order of U-Gard. It was recommended to me for a horse that has stomach issues. She seems very comfortable since I started this product. I plan to continue using it.

Amazing
I bought this almost a month ago for my 18 yr old quarter horse and am already seeing progress, she was severely underweight, no personality, and had multiple symptoms of ulcers, never had a vet out to check, more so used as a preventative. now she has gained almost 20 pounds, her personality has come out more, and is overall way better. She is the most picky eater ever so we have to water it to stick to the feed bc she doesnt like the texture, but she loves the taste. Nothing bad to say! heres a before and after of her, psa- the after pic was taken after she was worked, so shes sweaty.

This is really working for my OTTB
I noticed a difference after about 2 weeks. My mare is definitely more relaxed about being brushed and tacked up. I did treat for ulcers, but even after that she was just off and in a bit cranky. Started her on the U Guard powder, which she eats fine mixed with soaked alfalfa pellets, and very quickly saw positive results. She is awesome and so is this product!

Worked Slightly
I kept my Half Arab on this for several months giving it time work. I did see some improvement but not total comfort. He is less nippy when being girthed but still has a reaction. He loved the taste and licked his bowl clean so no problem there. I have switched over to Leg Up Stomach Pellets to see if this is a better option for him. I would recommend giving it a try to see if it works it just didn’t completely work for me and I want to try something else.

Hoping to works
I feed this to my Mare and she eats it when I soak her feed in water. If left dry she won’t bother eating this product. She has only been on ugard for 3 days and seems to be getting better.

Horse won’t eat!
My horse won’t eat it. I have even tried giving it to my gelding that eats anything you put in front of him and he won’t eat it. I even soaked it with her grain and she won’t eat it like that either. Which is how I normally get them to eat powder stuff. I was using the pellets before. Wish I had never switched. Though I am sure it would work just fine if you horse will eat it. Unfortunately mine would not.

Magic!
I bought this about 3 weeks ago. Within 5 days my mare went from pinning her ears when brushing, extremely girthy and having an attitude when ridden to a pleasure to brush and ride. I only wish I would have started the supplement sooner! I suspected ulcers but wasnt positive before. This has made all the difference with her in a very short amount of time. Plus she loves the taste. I shake the feed scoop to make sure it coats the grain.

Doing its job perfectly!
I truly love this product. My Otto has never shown any symptoms of ulcers, but knowing how prevalent they are, especially in tbs, I put him on this power as a preventative. That was nearly two years ago, and still no ulcer or gastric issues- it works perfectly for us AND he absolutely loves to eat this! He will eat the power straight-up raw then try to kiss my face with his pink-powdered nose! I also feel very calm how with some extra I have that after or before a stressful event I can give him an extra scoop to help with no harm done. Excellent product!

So far so good!
We get extremely harsh winters here in Montana and my older Thoroughbred is starting to have issues with stress through the constant changes in weather. I decided this year I would try to ease his stress-induced gut issues with ULCER guard. So far he has kept his weight and shine, his energy levels are normal, he seems to chomp his sides significantly less, and his coat looks thick and healthy! Worth the purchase and cant beat the price!
(Info only - I buy the powder and he has no issue with taste or smell, he gobbles it right up)
