HOT
SHOT only uses the best. That’s why we use Ortho-Equine products.
-Tanya Steinhoff
I have used Ortho-Equine products since January. I have found
that the boots provide excellent support to my horses. I like
that it can be hot outside and the boots keep my horses legs
cool. I use the Electro-Boost as well. The first time I used
it was when my horse was starting to tie up the night before
I was up at the Denver Stock show. I gave him the Electro-Boost,
and was able to use him the next morning. That was amazing.
Usually when he ties up, he is out a few weeks. I have used
Electro-Boost ever since. I use it when I travel, when it is
hot, and when I know that my horses are going to be used pretty
hard. I really like not worrying about my equipment.

My name is Nancy Campiche and I’m from Washington District 8.
My mare is “Roja” and she is the first horse in our district
to sport the new NBHA sport boots and are we ever getting attention!
I got her the red, white and blue boots and everyone lovers
her new look. More importantly, her legs really stay cooler
and she doesn’t fuss with them on. I think they must boost her
confidence because right after I bought these, she debuted into
racing and won her first championship blanket in the 4-D from
a mini-series at Red Barn Arena in Long Beach, Washington.
My name is Chris Steiner. I run with the American West 4D in
California. I was fortunate and lucky enough to win 3rd in the
3D average at the Wine Country Classic in Clements, CA and won
a pair of the Comfort Boot sports medicine boots. I just want
to say THANK YOU!!! You have a great product. Before I won this
pair, I had purchased a set the day before and ran my second
consecutive placing run (placed 3rd in 3D both days). Thanks
again for sponsoring this event by donating your product.

Bailey Jo and I are running 3 competition barrel horses in your
Ortho-Equine boots. We like the light weight and ease of putting
them on a horse. We also fell that we are getting the protection
we require and are extremely please about how cool these keep
our horses legs. Thank you for creating such a good product.

I have a 15 year old gelding that I am running barrels. He has
been one of the hardest horses to fit a saddle on because he
is very wide and flat backed. Saddles roll on him terribly.
The neoprene cinches worked okay but were so hot. Finally, I
found a cinch that works. The Ortho-Equine cinch is not hot
and yet has a great deal of grip. I don’t have to cut him in
two and my saddle doesn’t roll at all. We got one for my husband
to use on his rope horses and he loves it also. These cinches
are great! They are comfortable and easy to take care of and
keep clean. I recommend them highly and use them on a variety
of horses from older rodeo horses to young colts.

We purchased two complete sets of boots and are extremely happy
with the quality and sense of security your boot offers our
barrel horses. Thanks again for a wonderful product that offers
us a piece of mind while we are competing knowing that we are
giving our equine athletes the best protection on the market
today.

The boots worked “great” on my little mare in the final run
at the world show for NBHA! We placed 9th in the senior class!
It was a good thing that I purchased the boots! They helped
“Aguilas Elegance!” No sweat No dirt!
-Beth Strahan
Thank
you for introducing me to the Ortho-Equine Boots for my mare
Blessing. If you remember, she would completely tear apart her
back boots and I was replacing them all the time. With the strap
on the Ortho-Equine boots she has had the same boots for months
now. I like the support the boots have offered her and use them
on my geldings front legs as well.

Oxy-Oat
and Electro-Boost Testimonials
Since
the start of the 2002 season, Hot Shot has been on Ortho-Equine’s
Electro-Boost and Oxy-Oats. These products have given him
stamina and performance. I use and recommend both products
in my practice.”
-Dr. John Marcotte, D.V.M.
My horse loves to eat his Oxy Oats. He thinks they are a treat. I can tell a BIG difference in his performance. He doesn’t run out of air before he crosses the timer and he is not breathing hard when the run is over. I am telling everyone about the Oxy Oats. Not only are Oxy Oats a boost for your horse, they are very affordable. Thank you Oxy Oats.

I just love the Electro-Boost product put out by Ortho-Equine. I started Moe and the product at the Heartland Nationals held in Wichita, KS. I have seen a big improvement in his ability to recover after his runs. Moe has EPSM, Equine Polysaccharide Myopathy, and is on a very strict diet. This diet had to include some kind of Electrolyte to keep him from not getting dehydrated when running. I have been looking for a good electrolyte for months now and none of them have given the necessary results. Electro-Boost has allowed him to run hard, recover quickly and keep hydrated so that he can run the next day.

A few months ago, I purchased your Oxy-Oats and Electro-Boost for my 13yr old barrel horse who suffers from allergies and heaves. His symptoms never became severe until after moving out into the country last year. He developed a lung infection last summer and after several visits I was informed that he suffered from allergies and heaves. The vet said that he was at the time functioning on about a 60% oxygen level. I spent most of the summer getting him well. This year I though we were in the clear and he was back to normal. Our first two shows he did awesome. No fits at the gate, no fighting me, good patterns. Then all of the sudden he started throwing fits at the gate, began fighting me and was just being a stinker. I began noticing how flared his nostrils became after workouts and how long it took him to recover. I thought to myself… You know if I couldn’t breath, I too would be throwing fits at the gate s and fighting anybody who trying to make me work. So I was looking in my Valley Vet Catalog for something to help with allergies and heaves. I came across your products and decided to give them a try. I am so glad I did. I can’t believe the difference they have made in and for my horse. The first time I used the Electro-Boost was at a State Finals in Topeka. I was apprehensive about using it for the first time because I was unsure of the results I would get. My horse is high spirited and I was afraid it would even make him more high spirited. So the next day, I gave him the Electro-Boost. As I was warming him up and our time to run drew near, I couldn’t believe how cooperative and calm he was being. I even began to think something was wrong with him. I told my father, I didn’t know what kind of run we would have because he was almost being a dead head. My time to run came and as I approached the alleyway…NO FIT. He didn’t fight me and we had a great run. My “Good Horse” was back. After his run he wasn’t breathing as hard, no flared nostrils and his recovery time was incredibly fast. I decided to give your products more time before I wrote you and told how they were working for us. Thanks for such great products.
P.S. I forgot my Electro-Boost at one show and I sure won’t make that mistake again. His breathing was still okay and his recovery time was good but he threw another fit. Next show, he got his Electro-Boost and No fit. HMMM….figure that out.

Immediate Response
I was lucky enough to have picked up a tube of IMMEDIATE RESPONSE from Brian at the Tulsa NBHA show on Friday morning, then low and behold one of my horses coliced that very afternoon. I gave him the tube of IMMEDIATE RESPONSE and with in an hour he was feeling better. He started moving around and drinking again. I was thankful for such a great product.
