Hi Carol (and Catherine)

This email is long overdue and sorry for not getting around to it earlier. When my pony foundered in September I was suddenly on a very steep learning curve. I was researching for hours on the internet to find anything that could assist my Shetland pony with getting better, and quickly! Country Park Herbs name popped up a couple of times and I feel so lucky for finding you!

Romeo (my pony) made an AMAZING recovery. He became very, very sick on the bute and got stomach ulcers and was laying down for most of the day groaning in pain. It was terrible. Your beautiful packages arrived and within 24 hours he was able to stand and eat (chaff only J) and get his stomach and bowels working again. I syringed him three times a day as per your instructions and he just got better and better. One night, after about a week, I got home late on a Sunday and did not give him his third syringing for the day and in the morning when I went out to see him he was laying down groaning again and his feet were so sore. Your herbs were having a huge affect on his recovery and wellness.

Three weeks after the initial founder I returned him to the paddock for 1 hour and when I went out to catch him he ran away from me, trotting around without a care in the world. Naughty little bugger. He wanted to keep killing himself with the spring grass!

 Well, you should see him now. He is looking and feeling great. He still gets a few of his herbs as you recommended to support him. My farrier can’t believe his recovery. Even his tail is looking thicker, he looks fabulous.

What I am trying to say is THANK YOU so much for all your help. You provide a fantastic service. Thank you, thank you.

 BUT this email is two fold

I have now bought a scraggly Off The Track Thoroughbred. He has been kept in a 4x4 box at the race track for the last 2.5 yrs as he was a lead pony. As he couldn’t walk at all he has no topline. He also has a few bad scars from old injuries and he has a tiny tail. He is so lacking in energy and his hooves are in terrible shape too. Can I please have a consultation by Caroline for him and I will start getting him to look and feel a bit better? (I will fill out a form on your website)

Thank you again and kindest regards

I would like to thank you and your team for their hard work and for doing such a great job at what you do.
Keep up the good work!

Hi Caroline,

I just wanted to thank you so much for your help with my horse Goofy as per the email below.

I have battled with greasy heel on Goofy for the better part of 18 months. He had it on all four white socks.  I would get to the point where I thought it was clearing up and it would be back literally the next day with a vengeance.  I was religiously removing the scabs, applying zinc cream as well as prednoderm, washing in betadine etc, and the only thing I found that would clear it up was antibiotics.  Unfortunately as soon as the anti-biotics finished it was back.  I had resigned myself to a constant battle.

Until I used your prescribed herbs.  I am happy and astonished to say that the greasy heel has completely gone.  Completely.  And he has been greasy heel free for nearly 3 weeks.  There is not a sign of it at all.  I am stunned.  While I have always appreciated the value of herbs I was not quite prepared for such a rapid and complete treatment.

I thank you so very much, from the bottom of my heart.  He is so much more comfortable as he is no longer in pain (and believe me, some of the lesions were so deep and cracked on his pasterns he was so sore).    I cannot recommend you and Country Park enough and will suggest to all who are having similar issues to contact you for advice.

Thanks again, from me and from Goofy

Kindest regards, Nicole Maywald


 

Hi Carol

I just wanted to say thank you for your excellent products - they have played a really important part in the rehabilitation of a rescue filly, Stella.  Stella was starving when she came to me, and in the early days she (not surprisingly) had some digestive issues - your slippery elm was a great help in getting her tummy working properly. Your chamomile has also been great, both to maintain her digestive health, and also to help relax a very nervous young horse whose interaction with humans had been completely negative. 

I have also had great results with your Timesaver formula with Stella. While her condition had improved since I got her, she was still not looking as bright as she could have been. However, since she has been on Timesaver, she has blossomed and now has a radiant coat and bright eyes.  I have attached some photos - you would never guess she had such a hard start to life!  Again, thank you for your products (a range of which I use on all my horses) - it is great to find something that has made a real difference.

Erinna & Stella (and friends), Ballalaba

PS Stella lives out full time with her new horsey friends, and the 'after' photo was taken when Stella had just come in that day - no washing, no grooming."

Picked up the package today. Very impressed with the packaging of the herbs, powders and seeds. Good enough to eat myself. In fact, are they approved for human consumption?

Thanks for your help and your efficient, kindly service. No doubt I will be in touch again.

Cheers  Kate


Hi Carol,

Photos of different stages of the wound to the back of my horse Chesters' off fore knee area. 

It is looking smaller and smaller and the flap of skin is only a slight lump now - it looks as thought the scarring will be quite minimal, a good result to my relatively inexperienced eye.

Chester was having the Calendula petals you recommended in his feed and I also made a tea with them and washed it down with that twice a day. I'm so pleased with the result, he has healed far better than what I had expected. 

Thank you so much for your help, advice and excellent quality product.

Cheers,

Amy


Dear Carol,

I just wanted to let you know that I am very happy with rosehip shells that you sent.  Both packaging and quality are excellent. 

Also, thank you for the little complimentary bag of rosehip granules.  It was exactly what I needed for my weekend trip.

I also wanted to say that, though, rosehip tea was something new and odd to my relatives and friends, they all have enjoyed it very much from the first sip.

I'm very glad that I found your on-line shop and I will definitely order more things from you in the future. 

Happy Easter!!!

Kind regards,           Mariya :)


 

Hi Everyone at Techyflex,

This is just a short note to thank you for your great product, my son’s show jumper started on this about 4 weeks ago and we cannot believe the difference, this horse  was struggling with my very tall and solid built son to the point we nearly sold him.

Well over the weekend he jumped 4 rounds up to 1.30m without one rail pulled. His last time at that height he knocked every second rail at a very big event.

Also Country Park Herbs supplied this product in the quickest and most efficient manner and were perfect to deal with.

We can’t thank you enough. If you ever want to sponsor a rider that truly believes in your product just ring me LOL

Kind regards Kelly and Tyson King  - Sydney, Australia


 

Hi Carol,

I have just finished an event with my horse, we arrived home and have started using the Forest Farmacy Products with the most amazing results for both my horse and myself.

I cannot believe just how fantastic this product is, my horses appearance is great with the herbs I feed him but this is maximized now, he looks and feels fantastic, also when using the products they have in no way irritated my horse or myself I am normally driven mad with burning, itching skin after shampooing him with my previous horse shampoo, my hands feel great after I have washed my horse.

I am sure you have had some wonderful feed back on these products, I have recommended  them to all my friends. I am 100 % pleased.

Many thanks

Hi Carol

My  name is Pauline Goodwin. I ordered 15kg of rosehips and some sarcoid gel from you a little while ago. Just a note to say that the sarcoid cream has completely removed my horses sarcoids. he had three or four on one white foot and the same on the other just above the hoof wall.  Two were fairly large as had been knocked during an endurance ride. I started the gel a couple of weeks before my  ride, and then a few days before the ride I stopped as they were looking quite black and yucky. However after a couple of days I could see that they were slowly breaking  down and disappearing. The only ones left were the two larger ones. After the endurance ride I then applied the gel again to those and after a few days they also disappeared.

This is a fantastic out-come as the vet was not sure how successful he would be removing them and also I would have been risking spreading them.

Thank you for a great product.

Regards Pauline


 

My 14 year old Labrador x Border Collie was born with bone defects in both knees.  In 2007 Tessy became chronically lame, not being able to put her leg to the ground.  This of course was mentally and physically stressful for her.

She was diagnosed with severe arthritis of both knee joints and the prognosis was not good. After being on the Techniflex Canine for two days she was able to put her foot to the ground again.  She now receives this daily and has her quality of life back again.

I also feed a natural diet of meat(mostly chicken) and Vets All Natural Complete Mix. I highly recommend Techniflex for any joint problems your dog may have.

.... Also I was wanting to tell you that the Sarcoid Gel that I purchased in my last order is fantastic.  My husband’s quarter horse mare had a sarcoid on her side just where the girth sits and it was rubbing badly when under saddle.  We used the gel morning and night for about 3 weeks and the sarcoid disappeared.  It was a great result without having to get the vet out and operating on her.  Thanks very much for stocking such a great product!!

In mid April I emailed Ruth at Country Park, Qld with a couple of questions concerning my two thoroughbred horses aged 9 and 12.  Every Winter they seemed to get colds and coughs and I was wanting to know if there was anything that would give them some sort of ‘protection’ or help them get through the winter without the usual illnesses.  Ruth explained to me the benefits of a natural diet in the prevention of illness, and also that CP were trialling different blends, and that they had an Autumn blend designed for just such a purpose as what I was seeking for my two lovely boys.  I began a feeding regime which included garlic, rosehips, cold pressed linseed oil and other products, and also the Autumn Blend.

It is quite remarkable now, just a few months down the track, to see how healthy and ‘gleaming’ they both are.  As yet, touch wood, no coughs, no runny noses, just two gorgeous boys.  I really want to thank CP for their Autumn Blend, as I truly believe it is working a treat on my horses – along with the natural diet.  Congratulations on launching the blends, and every success to you.

Hi Catherine,

I just wanted to give you an update on my mare and thank you for your advice. We have had great success with leaving the Attitude Belnd dose the same and increasing the chastetree to 2 tbsps a day.

My mare is no longer biting at her sides on her ratty days and appears much more comfortable physically and thankfully emotionally.

Thank you again for your advice. It was much appreciated and successful.

Exciting reviews on Mobicosa for us humans...

I am 68 years old and a very keen tennis player, having played A Grade most of my life.  A few years ago I started to have knee problems (probably a combination of age, farm life, too many years in the saddle and my tennis) and felt I would have to stop playing.  I started using Glucosamine Sulphate and my knees did improve but I found I had to use knee straps as well for support and they still ached after a hard workout.

At my daughter, Charmaine’s, insistence I purchased two bottles from Country Park Animal Herbs and started on Mobicosa capsules about 6 weeks ago.  The improvement has been amazing.  I no longer use the straps and can run freely again, with no aching knees anymore.  I have been recommending Mobicosa to all my tennis friends and would highly recommend Mobicosa to everyone.  And thank you to Carol and the team at Country Park Animal Herbs.

Just a quick one from Charmaine. 

The thought of my Dad giving up tennis scared me.  He was considering going to play bowls and while I know this is a good sport I just can’t see him enjoying it as much.  Dad has been playing tennis all my life and he enjoys the competition and the social side of things.  He has travelled around Australia with mum and the Veteran’s tennis group playing anywhere they are invited and some places I am sure they are not.  He also recently travelled to New Zealand with the group and played a few games against some New Zealand Veteran teams.

Dad says I insisted on him trying Mobicosa and I did.  I also made him promise to take the loading dose as suggested for 10 days before coming back to the maintenance level.  The feedback from Dad has been great.  He noticed a difference within two weeks and for him to be able to remove the knee straps is fantastic.  It has given him a new lease on the tennis court – look out competition.  The biggest thing for me was the fact that Dad was so willing to start the Mobicosa and then to continue on the capsules.  I always thought he was of ‘the old school’ where you don’t worry about those sorts of things.  Maybe I am wrong or maybe Dad has realised he doesn’t have to put up with the pain.  Perhaps if he had been on Mobicosa earlier his knees wouldn’t have given him such grief and he might still want to ride with me, but he has been too long out of the saddle now

Hi guys I thought I was doing well with my home arthritis blend, but decided to try your Retirement Blend for my 32yr old QH with severe arthritis. I have been using it now with Glucosomine and MSM for 2-3 months and have noticed a gradual but surprising improvement in her freedom of movement and we can't hear her joints creaking. 

 
Also during Winter her coat becomes very dull and unhealthy, but she still has a great shine and silky feel to it heading into winter. 

I also thought this might have been her last Winter but am so pleased with her improvement, think she may outlive me.......

Thanks Karen (Victoria) 

Hi Ruth,

Thanks for your product and herbal sample of rosehips. On comparing the glucosamine with what I have been purchasing, yours is far superior, no added fillers, totally different taste and look and works out so much cheaper. I am glad I found your site and ordered.  Great service, prompt delivery and fabulous products, will become a regular. Thanks for the herbal booklet too, very informative and well written.

Cheers, Paula

I have been ordering my herbs, tissue salts and various veterinary products from Country Park Animal Herbs for many years now. I have had excellent results with our show and breeding horses with the assistance of Catherine Birds telephone consultations. Your Country Parks herbs are always professionally packaged and of excellent quality. The selection is second to none and I have found the pre-mixes to be both economical and work so much better than many of the supplements on the produce stores shelves for double the price. I once again can not thank Ruth and Carol enough for their attention to detail which makes them one of the best businesses I have ever dealt with. The complimentary information sheets and complimentary herbs are icing on the cake. It never ceases to delight me that such old fashioned customer service still exists in todays world - whether I order online or over the phone my order is at my mail box within 24 hours regardless of living in a rural area. The discounted postage is an added bonus which ensures that Country Park's products are both value for money and of the best possible quality. The quality of the Country Park products shines through in our horses excellent health, wellbeing and temperaments.

I've religiously had my horse on a herbal blood cleansing regime and natural diet (lucerne/oaten chaff/soaked oats + herbs etc) for the past two and a half months (she had a terrible dry coat and bare patches - looked wormy, but wasn't) - and she is looking just terrific now!  I can't believe the difference the herbs have made! 

 
Thanks so much for your prompt service....I've not run out of anything yet.....and I always order at the last minute.... luckily I know I can always rely on a prompt response when dealing with you at Country Park Herbs! 
 
Cheers,  Helen Kirk  (Blackwater, Nth Qld)
