What People Are Saying

 

“Brittany is incredibly thorough. She sure knows her numbers and sciences! She also has a large repertoire of feed brands, helping her peg down exactly what your horse needs.

Two key things I value most with Brittany: how very very thorough her analyses are and how unbiased she is.”

— Melanie

“I would highly recommend consultation with Brittany if you are requiring help with any dietary needs for your horse. My horse was recently diagnosed with IR, after a complete assessment, Brittany formulated a diet plan. After a few months I am so ecstatic with the improvements! He has lost the recommended weight, appears much healthier with a really shiny thick coat, and his energy levels have increased dramatically so I know he is feeling better.”

— Marianne

“Brittany does a fantastic job of supporting horse owners to find a dietary plan to suit each horse, paired with being realistic about managing whatever limitations you may have. She is very kind, helpful, thorough, and open to all questions. With her analysis, I feel comfortable that I am doing the best for my horses’ nutritionally without wasting money on unnecessary products.”

— Aimee
