Stories From the Saddle

A Cost-Effective Fix for My Cinchy Horse

March 13, 2020 2:01:21 PM MDT / by Amber Foote

My mare Zika used to pin her ears every time I’d saddle her and tighten the girth. Her attitude issues didn’t stop there, though. When I tried to ride her, she wouldn’t listen and rode tensely.

Our rides were frustrating! It almost always felt like we were going nowhere.

I decided to try Zika on Daily Gold because it was natural and didn’t cost too much. Being a high school student working under low pay, that was important! I liked that I could buy a bag and it would last a month.

I knew Daily Gold was helping to solve Zika’s pain and sensitivity to being cinched when I tacked her up and finally she didn’t pin her ears. Then when we rode, it felt amazing! She wasn’t tense and her movements flowed much more freely.

Now that Zika feels better, both of our lives are less frustrating. We have better rides and better time together.
