I just want to tell you that I cannot believe how powerful this Bee Pollen is! I put my horse, Violet, on it less than a week ago, and she has improved her stamina by leaps and bounds in just a short time. I would describe her as "delicate" — you had to ride carefully and lightly. She would not engage her hind end at the lope, and she would tucker out very quickly. I rode her yesterday and pushed her just a bit to see how she was. It was like riding a different horse. I can't wait to see how she is after a month of the stuff! I purchased the Bee Pollen on your recommendation after telling you that last year she lost all muscle in one side of her face. The previous owners did lots of vet work, but no one could figure out what happened. She had been lame since then. She's on a combo of J-Flex and Bee Pollen and she is blossoming. Thank you so very much!! Jenny Zogg, Wisconsin

I am so glad I found you. My dogs and horses benefit from your wonderful products. My old horse pictured, is 34 1⁄2 in this photo. I recently ran out of Bee Pollen for him and thought, oh well, he's on pasture part of the day. But, in just a couple of months, he lost weight! We reordered our Springtime products, which I am sure he will be grateful for. It definitely made a difference in him initially, and taking him off of it was not to his benefit. He'll get this product for the rest of his life.
Thank you from my animals!

Three years ago I purchased a horse, Yoda, who was navicular, laminitic and had been treated for EPM. He had many issues, which I addressed with barefoot trim, diet, movement and herbs. He had an odd way of moving which I initially thought was due to his hoof issues. But when they recurred almost three years later they were diagnosed by my vet as a recurrence of EPM. I tried her recommendations which were acupuncture, etc. He still had the collapsing hind. I also tried a course of homeopathic prescriptions…no change. I remembered that I had seen the hind end malfunction when I first got him, and that it had gone away. I was doing a lot of herbs and the like at the time. I thought it might be Bee Pollen, and when I put him on it (double dose), he immediately started to improve. He went from barely being able to walk, to floating.

I wanted to let you know I am very happy with your products. My older Appaloosa gelding, Stoney, who turned 25 has had a problem with his weight for about three years now. His shoulder blades had no flesh over them, his hip bones were visible as well as his whole spine and ribs. Because he was blind, I could not turn him out to pasture. Also, with seven other horses, a two year old son, and a third shift job, hand grazing him every day was impossible. As a last ditch effort, I ordered Bee Pollen, Hoof & Coat Formula, Bug Off Garlic, and Springtime GL. I made no other changes to his hay or grain and within two months he has obviously gained weight over his hips, back and shoulders. Thank you so much for products that really work.

I have been using your products for several months now and couldn't be happier with the results... Our two aging huskies had slowed down due to joint issues and one had trouble tolerating every other brand of joint support we offered her (lots of puking). With Fresh Factors, she gets just what she needs with normal stomach function! We use Joint Health Chewables for her sister Nikki. Our two Cavalier Spaniel boys needed a little support to make that leap onto the "big bed"(that's our bed) and thanks again to Fresh Factors, we no longer are serenaded by whimpering and whining during late night forays off the big bed in search of whatever it is dogs search for in the dead of night when they should be sleeping peacefully!
My horses shine (Spirulina Wafers and Bee Pollen), and are as bite-free as horses can be living in the coastal swamp of North Carolina (Bug Off Garlic). Never have supplements been so readily consumed. I use the Spirulina Wafers for trick training... now that's an endorsement! Thank you, thank you, and thank you! Our orders will keep coming and hopefully more from friends on Facebook (where I gave you a shout out) and my blog, where I have you linked.
Thanks again!

First of all let me make it clear that my horse, Trouper, does not, nor did he, have any problems when I selected the Springtime Gamma as my free item the last time I ordered your products for my dogs. I ordered the Gamma because of the information I read about it and felt this was one way of offering additional calories in the cold months without upping concentrated feeds… I had wanted to see if the Gamma might keep Trouper from losing any weight during the numerous frigid snaps here in Tennessee.
Now that we are on the backside of winter I can say for sure that the alterations in Trouper's body are not only noticeable but also seem permanent… Not only did Trouper not lose any weight, but Trouper put on muscle-weight, high on the croup where his pelvis attaches to his backbone, across the top of his scapula and the large muscle on the inside of the rear legs at the back.
I cannot tell you what a joy it is to purchase a product that not only does what it claims it will, but goes even a little further, thank you.

I've enclosed photos of SC Splash's Valley Girl, alias Magic, taken when I bought her in January of 2009, and today, June 30, 2009. She has been on Springtime Gamma. The difference in her haircoat and muscling is amazing. I've used Gamma before on a mare I showed in halter, with the same great results. Thanks for a great product!

Last year, my 24 year old Pinto/Arabian, Cloud Dancer, was in very poor health due to the poor quality of hay we had to use and the simple fact that he was 'getting old'. My daughter had a copy of your catalog and while looking through it I came across your pages on Springtime Gamma and Breather Powder. I decided to give them a try. Last summer, I had him on both of these products and I was amazed at the difference. He maintained a healthy weight and was able to maintain normal respiratory function. I was amazed because our veterinarian had been unable to help us. I can't thank you enough for your wonderful products. They have saved my favorite old gelding and given him a new lease on life.

My black Percheron, Barak, is four years old and in very good health. I have been giving him Bug Off Garlic for some time with great results. Last time I purchased enough to qualify for a free gift. I selected the Hoof & Coat Formula. He has completed one small jar. When my farrier arrived to trim his hooves he immediately began asking me what I had done to make his feet so strong and healthy. Percherons are bred for strong legs and hooves so I was surprised that one small jar of Hoof & Coat Formula could make such a noticeable difference with very good hooves. I gave my farrier the empty jar and a catalog as he plans to recommend it to his other clients. Thank you Springtime, for improving the quality of life for all four-legged friends.

I have four horses, and was originally only going to give Hoof & Coat Formula to my 17 year old endurance horse, Classy. He has been getting "thumps" (synchronous diaphragmatic flutter). It was determined that he was low in sodium chloride. I tried everything. Nothing seemed to work. I strongly considered retiring him.
I have given Classy Hoof & Coat Formula for six months now and so far NO THUMPS! My Arab filly had been experiencing chronic diarrhea. After giving her Hoof & Coat Formula she cleared up. I have put all my horses on Hoof & Coat Formula. They glow with health from head to tail! Your company has given me hope that there is a way to heal naturally from the inside out.

My 24 year old Morgan mare, Irish Cream, developed laminitis with founder several years ago. The veterinarian prescribed biotin for follow-up treatment. She has been on Hoof & Coat Formula ever since, and remains healthy and active in driving (using her big Morgan trot) and just being a pet. Thank you for giving us Hoof & Coat Formula and other dependable people, horse, and dog products.

As always thanks for your great service! Recently, I've ordered from another mail order company and their shipping was expensive. Thanks for keeping your rates so low.
Thought you'd also like to see how great my colt is doing on Springtime's Bug Off Garlic and Gamma. As soon as Lark, my Percheron colt, would eat, I gave Gamma. This is a picture of him at four months old (yes, only four months!) He is 13.1 HH and getting more of a beautiful build every day besides his healthy shine.
Thanks!

We have been using your Gamma to rehabilitate one of our horses. Charlie (a mare) came to us stressed out and underweight. A low-stress lifestyle, good grazing, and Gamma has been instrumental in improving her body condition. The pictures show her progress – before and after.
Almost forgot to mention – she is between 25-30 years old. She looks great and has a great spirit!
Thank you,

My Quarter/Fox Trotter mare, Sunny, foundered about 3 years ago. I have fought with her feet constantly. Last year, the right front cracked, and I had lost my farrier. Her feet went without attention for almost 3 months as I located a farrier who had the expertise I wanted. In the meantime, I came across the Hoof & Coat Formula and began feeding it immediately.
A month later, I noticed the crack in Sunny's hoof was shrinking! Not only was it reconnecting from the top but from the bottom as well! I could hardly wait for the farrier to come again. When he did, he too was amazed at the structural difference in her hoof.
Sunny has now been on the Hoof & Coat Formula for approximately 7 months. At our last farrier appointment, my farrier declared her sound. In fact, he said that if he did not know she had foundered, he would be wondering if she had. Not only do her feet look better, but they are hard which is so great for white hooves (although muddy in the "after" photo, Sunny has white hooves). Hoof & Coat Formula has definitely helped support her healthy hooves. Both myself and my farrier give it full credit for my mare's feet health. Sunny will be on it for life.

I am writing to tell you how pleased I've been with your products. We have 6 horses and 4 dogs, and all of them are on Springtime supplements. Our horses are on Gamma, Bug Off Garlic, occasionally Bee Pollen and Spirulina Wafers, and I've recently started them on J-Flex Concentrate. We've seen significant improvement and dappling in their coats.
Doc, our 10 year old Percheron gelding, has a coat that is so glossy and dappled. He looks wonderful in his natural coat, even without spray on shine products. He really doesn't need anything but a bath to show his vibrant coat. Doc's coat looks wonderful on Gamma.
Recently, the night before a draft horse show, I spent forever washing him and Rock, our other 18 year old Draft horse. That's a lot of acreage per horse, at 18'2 and over 2,000 pounds. Of course, the next morning, Doc and Rock looked like they had rolled in dirt and a manure pile. We didn't have enough time to do more than squirt the worst of it off with a hose. But their underlying coats were so vibrant that just a thorough grooming made them show ring ready. My husband Mike was really impressed with the quality of their coats this year on your products.
Fly control is crucial for Doc, because he came to us with a docked tail. He has no fly swatter in summer! We know the Bug Off Garlic works, because when we ran out all the horses had flies, whereas before there would only be one or two that would alight and then immediately fly off.

My 4 year old off the track Thoroughbred's registered name is 'Great Rezults' but I call him 'Sir G' or just plain 'G'. He was a throw away as he only raced 8 times in his young life and came in 1st just once. But his last two races this year in March and April, he came in 2nd! His ancestors are Man O' War, Native Dancer, and Unbridled is his Great Grandfather…his cousin is American Pharaoh! His knees are a little inflamed and can't handle the races anymore so his owner let him go. So for only $600, I have a beautiful 4 year old Thoroughbred with lots of life left in him and he's enjoying the 'retired' life!
I have been using your Hoof & Coat Formula on Sir G for a little over a week now. He was suffering from rain rot. I had used a product which killed the rain rot, but his hair hadn't grown back in. However, this past week after I started on Hoof & Coat Formula, I noticed his hair has completely filled back in!!! WOW, that was FAST!
And I'm pretty sure his 'delicate' hooves have strengthened as well. He has kept both of his shoes securely on the past 2 and 1/2 weeks (twice he's lost one prematurely). Today I noticed his hooves look really healthy, shiny, and strong and his hind hooves haven't started chipping away like they normally do after a couple of weeks. I can't wait until my farrier comes on October 12th to see how much Sir G's feet have improved!
I moved him from a much too wet environment that was causing him to be very tender footed and making him basically lame. He also obtained an abscess from that place as well. After moving Sir G to his now high and dry beautiful home, it took a month for him to recover. But I just have to say that this past week after starting him on the Hoof & Coat Formula, he recovered at a rapid pace from both the rain rot AND his soft, water damaged hooves.
Thank you, Springtime for a wonderful product!!! I will send you an update to let you know what my farrier thinks. I'm sure he will be very pleased!

Boswellia Extract is the best product that I have ever used for my degenerative back pain, with the exception of NSAIDs and narcotics (which I elected to discard in favor of the Boswellia Extract long ago, thanks to Springtime).
Here is a photo of my TWH mare, Sable, and me. She has been given Hoof & Coat Formula since she was rescued four years ago. This product has been on my MUST HAVE list for approximately 25 years! All of my horses bloom with daily, year-round use. We use a pelleted feed, but they lick up this supplement and never leave it sitting in the bottom of the feeder! We enjoy riding varied and challenging terrain and I attribute my horse's endurance to the natural ingredients found in the Hoof & Coat Formula. Of course, they are all on a good feeding and maintenance program as well.
Did I mention that my dogs look forward to their daily doses of Fresh Factors to keep them feeling and looking great? They have improved digestion, shiny coats and reduced doggy odor! Thank you, Springtime, for products that deliver at affordable prices!
Thankfully,
