At Cheshire Racehorse Retraining, Vicky has been dedicated to transforming the lives of retired racehorses. Among these is Aidy, a beloved companion and Vicky's trusted hacking buddy for the past three years. Despite their strong bond, Aidy faced significant challenges that impacted his comfort and overall well-being.
One of the most noticeable issues with Aidy was his exceptionally smelly droppings. "To the point that if he did a poo whilst you were in the stable with him, you'd be like, oh my god, that stinks," Vicky recalls. This persistent issue became a daily nuisance until a remarkable change occurred. About three weeks after introducing MonoShield Equine into Aidy's routine, Vicky noticed a significant difference. "I was in the stable with him, and he did a poo, and I was like, I can't smell anything," she shares, delighted by the transformation. "Ever since then, his poos have just been normal!"
Aidy's challenges extended beyond his digestive issues. Vicky struggled with his sensitivity around the chest and poll areas, where he would often stamp his feet and display tension, making grooming and handling difficult. This soreness and discomfort were barriers to Aidy enjoying his daily activities and interactions.
However, since starting on MonoShield, Aidy has shown remarkable improvement. His demeanor has softened, and he has become far more approachable. "He was always really sore up here and really tense," Vicky explains, referring to the areas around Aidy's poll and chest. Now, those tense muscles have relaxed, and Aidy's overall happiness is evident. "He's just so much happier" Vicky affectionately remarks, highlighting the profound impact MonoShield has had on his well-being.
For Vicky, the change in Aidy is not just about eliminating unpleasant odours or easing physical discomfort—it's about witnessing Aidy transform into a relaxed and content companion. MonoShield has proven to be an invaluable addition to their routine, enhancing Aidy's quality of life and strengthening the bond they share.
Vicky's experience underscores the potential of MonoShield to address common equine issues and improve the overall health and happiness of horses. At Cheshire Racehorse Retraining, Aidy's journey is a testament to the power of dedicated care and the right nutritional support in achieving equine wellness.
