Re: Help with Cranky Dominant Mare

Hi Dr. Getty,

Thought I'd let you know that I think the Quiessence is doing the trick for Grace. Within 3 weeks she seemed more calm, and less tense and cranky. Even the dominant behavior subsided. Now I did work on re-establishing my dominance, but I don't think it would have worked so fast without the Quiessence. Of course, it is possible her behavior was hormonal as we're in that fall transition period, but I think the Quiessence really made the difference. So another problem solved by nutrition!

Thanks for your help, Dr. Getty. I hope you and your family, four-legged and otherwise, have a wonderful holiday season.

Re: Help with Cranky Dominant Mare

Hi Carole!

What an excellent report! I am so pleased to hear that the Quiessence has made a significant improvement in her demeanor. Oh, I'm sure your expertise had something to do with it, too! But, I expect that Quiessence contributed to her being better able to follow your instructions.

Thanks for the feedback!
