More Dynamite

Hi,

I just posted my story about three weeks ago about my horse with the kidney
cancer. I was about ready to have him put down when Karen, from this board,
advised me to call Bev Gray in Park City, Utah. Her horse Omner was diagnosed
with kidney cancer as well. Omner and Bev are two top endurance competitors,
logging in with something over 8,000 miles - probably more now. She told me
on the phone she had given him up to "science" so to speak, and had even
picked out the halter she would bury him in. But when she called Dynamite to
tell them they would have to find another horse to sponser because hers was
dying of kidney cancer, they asked if she was using their products. After
switching over to Dynamite, Omner recovered within four months and they are
back in competition today.

As you can imagine I have high hopes that this will work for my horse.
Currently I am weaning him from all processed grains. Eventually he will be
on cracked corn and oats, timothy hay and a couple of hours of pasture a day.
I'm in the Northeast now - having just moved from California. I understand
horses colic more often out here because of the frequent changes in air
pressure. Don't know much about this, if anyone would like to comment, I'd
appreciate it. At any rate, that is why you don't leave them on green grass
all day.

The point is when feeding Dynamite - to get off all processed mixes and stick
to pure food. Bev mentioned that she stays away from alfalfa completely now.
This has to do with the high protein content of alfalfa.

I'm just at the onset of trying to get this horse back up to speed, but
having used just the liquid Dyna-Pro (nutrients for the gut system) for a
week, he already looks fuller and has a brighter attitude. I'll keep you
posted on our progress!

Hopeful in Connecticut
