all good thanks Neil

About 18 months ago I took on a 12 year old Percheron who had a very long and sad history of neglect and starvation. He was a hot mess.

Among his many problems was a poorly functioning gut. He passed sloppy, cowpat manure constantly. He also passed great squirts of fecal liquid and I had to wash his tail and backend daily for hygiene reasons. On a good day he would pass giant poop masses full of poorly digested feed. These manure masses would show vague outlines of apples but were essentially a solid mass that I would describe as elephant poop. They showed the transit time through his ceacum and colon was too fast. He wasn’t reabsorbing enough liquid. He could be described as having a chronic colitis and he had several scary bouts of low grade colic.

I, along with my Vet, tried everything possible. We spent many months working our way through a long list of tests, treatments, and supplements. We got him to a point where he was not squirting liquid or doing cow pat slop. He was consistently producing elephant poops and it remained like that for months. My Vet and I both thought that maybe, that would be as good as he could get. That the damage to his bowel was such that it would never work properly again.

One day I saw an ad for Orego Stim on Facebook. I looked it up and thought, I’ve nothing to lose by trying it. So, I did. At the end of the first week, I thought I could see an improvement in his manure quality. Still elephant poop, but the apple outlines looked more obvious. By the end of the second week, he started to produce some apples. They were large, but there were individual apples. Initially they would accompany an elephant poop but by the end of the month, the elephant poops had stopped and it was all apples. They were still large but they did not have as much poorly digested feed in them. His gut was working better.

These days he produces really healthy-looking apples. They are smaller and undigested feed is not evident. His gut works and it works really well. I could not be happier and I am convinced that it is due to the Orego Stim. I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone facing a gut issue in a horse. It’s safe, it’s not expensive, and it’s not difficult to dose, my boy loves the taste so much he gets sad if I forget to add it but as with all new suppliments it's probably best to introduce slowly.

My gelding suffers from FWS and the orego stim is a must for his diet to keep it under control
