Can I use this product with the Senior Joint Formula? If so, how best is it to use. On the day of a ride? After the ride if needed? I noticed both have devils claw in them. Would it be better to use the Senior Joint daily and a pain relief lineament?

Asked by: Farmgirl
Hello, Our products are compatible and can be used in conjunction. However, since they both do contain devil's claw, I would recommend consulting your veterinarian before using both together. If you are strictly targeting joint pain on your senior horse, I would recommend using that as a daily supplement. We do sell lineament spray and gel if you would like to add that into your routine as well.

My horse is too tall for me to use pastes. Are the pellets flavored? How do you administer the liquid?

Asked by: Sister Sue
Hi, thanks for the question. Full ingredient lists are under the "Ingredients" tabs. The pellets contain Natural Apple Powder and molasses which give them flavor. The liquid can be administered orally or top dressed on feed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Ultracruz ReliefI tried this product on my 10yr old gelding who has an old shoulder injury, he's not lame but he doesn't always seem to be comfortable. While being on this product, I had noticed a difference in his step almost instantly. He seemed more comfortable and happy, was even running around which he never does. Plus side is this supplement is extremely inexpensive which is great on the wallet. Will continue to buy this as I can feed it all year round and will start my other gelding on it for added comfort. Thanks Santa Cruz Animal Health for allowing me to finally find a in expensive product that actually works!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I am so impressed with the shippingI am so impressed with the shipping, items so carefully packed. I have never seen such a nice bucket for the product, a lid that actually stays closed! I will most definitely order again, my old picky horse loves eating this product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Product!!I love this product! My picky eater eats the pellets up and I feel there is no loss such in the other brands powder forms. I live the price two as feeding 3 can get quite expensive! Thank you!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Equine ReliefI have been using Equine Relief for my now 25-year old Percheron mare for a few years now. She has a bad hoof and arthritis and a hard time walking during the cold, icy winters or anytime the ground hardens. The vet had given me Bute for her in the past, but I wanted to find a natural product. I tried other brands in the past, and none of them gave her the relief that UltraCruz's brand does. Also product comparisons showed me more or better ingredients for a much better price. I highly recommend UltraCruz Equine Relief.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from So far so good!!I bought this product about 2 weeks ago and I already see a huge different in my mare! Before she was slightly sore in her hocks and back and didn't want to move forward. Now she is more willing and feeling great! I will keep buying
