The Twisted Horse

04/05/2025

Howdy everyone! I am sad to say I will not be cleaning blankets spring/summer/fall of 2025. I’ve had to make an emergency trip to St George Utah for a family members health. I will be returning to the high desert but I don’t know when. For those of you who I have previously donated funds for hay to in the past I will continue to do so. No worries. Please reach out for references for blanket cleaning or just to say hi! I will miss my clients and friends very much! I WILL BE BACK! Thank you for all of the business and great conversations and friendships! I love you all!

Finally at the end of blanket season! What a busy season it was! I’m not complaining - my barn is full of hay but DAMN! The best part is making new friends, reacquainted with old friends and lots of warm, dry horses! On behalf of The Twisted Horse - Thank you Central Oregon. See you next Spring! (And for you stragglers - yes I have time to fix, wash, and repair your blankets still). Always open.

Once the horse gets to responding, then you try to get the response you are asking for with less. You try to cut down what you are applying and get more response with less pressure, until it almost gets to be just a thought." - Tom Dorrance from the book, "True Unity"

Hey there!! Most of us are gearing up for hay put up season! Time to put the blankets away! Don’t put them up wet, moldy, dirty, stinky, or all torn up! So much harder to clean and repair if they have sat in their funk all summer! I’m home from shenanigans abroad and out of state and ready to buckle down and clean some rugs!
I will pick up and deliver, or if you know where the compound is in East Bend, you can always leave them at my gate on your way out to ride. Repeat customers always get the discount! ($30 a blanket vs $35). Most cleaning/h2O proof and repair is included in that price unless repairs are extensive. I’ll always photograph and let you know if it’s considered extensive before I repair with your approval. I do have work already to finish up for two large barns so I’m already about 8-10 days turnaround time. Let’s get those blankets put up clean and ready for next winter! (In Bend that could be next week! Hahaha)

Omeprazole vs. Gut X™

"The Alarming Finding for Omeprazole is that 23% of Horses Experience Worse Results!"

Although proton-pump inhibitors such as Omeprazole (Gastrogard ® & Ulcergard ®) are commonly prescribed for Gastric Ulcers in horses, a very serious and somewhat common repercussion is “Acid Rebound Effect”. In the days after treatment, a surge in acid production may happen causing a significant drop in gastric pH and leaving the horse vulnerable to a new occurrence of ulcers repeating the cycle.

Veterinarians and Equine Nutritionist often recommend feeding a Horse Digestive Supplement either in combination with anti-ulcer medications or instead of (as a first effort) and continuing supplementation as long as the risk of gastric ulcers persist.

Looking back to a study published by Sykes, B.W. 2015; Prevention of Equine Gastric Ulcer Syndrome (EGUS) using Pharmaceutical drugs with Proton pump inhibitors will "Irreversibly Impair" the proton pump. EGUS healing rates ranged between 70-77% using a daily dose of Omeprazole (Gastrogard ® & Ulcergard ®) for 28 days. The alarming finding for Omeprazole is that 23% of horses with ulcers experienced worse results.

The study by Slovis, 2016; concluded that Equine given the "All Natural" polysaccharide blend of Hyaluronan & Beta Glucan showed that 90% had "Complete Resolution" of gastric ulcers in horses. In addition, improvements included morphological changes, behavior changes, weight gain and reduction of colic.

The extensively studied ingredients in Gut X™ are key to solving hind gut ulcers and gastric ulcers in horses. They indirectly heal the ulcerated tissue by signaling the innate immune response, increase nutritional absorption, balance the gut pH and soothe inflamed tissue in the stomach, upper GI and hind gut.

"Just purchased my second gallon for my horse that is recovering from severe ulcers. Before we started Gut X™.... She was lethargic with an attitude, lacking strength and muscle over top line and croup down through stifle. No sole on her foot, totally lame... NOW she’s spunky, hungry, sound and fit! I think it’s because it’s helped heal her gut so she can absorb protein efficiently again. She’s an all around horse and she’s huge- 17.1 but since she has a nice lift to her shoulder I’ve been working on rounding out and strengthening her top line when lounging. This was the ONLY thing I added. I’ve seen improvement in her attitude, energy, weight and overall body condition! Thank you for this! I look forward to her continued improvement on your product!" - Kelli C. ❤️💙
