Volunteers desperately needed for stressed horses shoeing trail!!!

[rbudden]

Would you like to try out a new product designed to reduce stress in horses????
Is your horse being shod twice before now and January?​

I am a final year veterinary student at the Royal Veterinary College and I’m looking for horses to take part in my research project.
I am trying to find out whether a commercially available nutraceutical marketed to reduce anxiety in horses decreases levels of stress responses when horses are being shod/food trimmed.
I will compare the effect using a questionnaire on the horses behaviour at one shoeing using the nutraceutical and another shoeing/foot trimming using a placebo.
If you are interested in taking part and helping me please contact me via email and I can send more information
rbudden@rvc.ac.uk
