Location: In My Own Dream Land | I haven't had the opportunity to use anything from PHT, but I do have a long wish list!! I'd like to try the 3-in-1s first, as I have a gelding who needs hock injections frequently and I believe this may help him feel better on the road. |

Location: Riding Crackhead. | keller235 - 2013-12-23 11:41 AM Definitely the sheet! I had a gelding who had a major accident with the farrier. I was unable to have my usual farrier work on him, as he was out of town, so I called another local gentleman to reset a shoe, just until my usual farrier came home the following week. This crazy man wound up tying his leg up and belly kicking him. My gelding flipped out and sent himself over backwards, landing on a railroad tie. He collapsed a lung and had all sorts of shoulder and hip issues. He wasn't able to come home from the vet for 6 weeks, and was on stall rest for 6 more weeks following that. I was told the day he left the clinic he'd never run again, but would be a pasture pet.
I used a PHT blanket on him faithfully and hand walked him. 3 weeks later he started getting antsy when I'd take him out for walks, acting like he wanted to buck and play. When I turned him out for the first time at 12 weeks, he bucked, kicked, played, ran, and snorted!!! Kept using the blanket, and low and behold, he IS able to run and compete again. I feel he would have NEVER made a full recovery without the help of PHT!!!
Would you please PM me with who did this to your horse? We live too close to each other that I don't want to take any chances. |

| We love our PHT products, we have seen so many results in all of the horses that we have used them on. My blanket is probably my favorite especially when we are on the road hauling for hours at a time and then into concrete stalls! Thank you PHT for such a wonderful product that my horses and I can NOT live without! |

| I spent years battling my geldings quarter cracks in both front feet, my farrier is very old school and teased me about spending $150 on bell boots for him even though i explained over and over again that they weren't "just" bell boots. They have really helped promote his hoof growth, and as of his last shoeing... the cracks have complete grown out. My farrier even admitted that the bell boots were a big part of it. |

Location: The South | It's hard to choose a favorite, but the blanket wins. I was fortunate enough to get one during last year's Black Friday sale. I can tell that my horse is more relaxed in the stall when we stay somewhere overnight, and he gets off the trailer ready to go instead of acting tired. He always runs just as hard the next day after a competition too!  |

| At our Association finals last year, my mare went down on the front end with her butt coming up over her (like a summer salt) twice before she was able to get back on her feet. We gave her some muscle relaxers and banimine, but I truly feel that the PHT magnetic blanket a good friend of ours gave us to keep on here for the remainder of the weekend is why her muscles didn't lock up!!!! I'm a believer now!!!! |

Location: Kansas | I love the 3-n-1 wraps because of their versatility. I can use them on front or back legs, hocks, ankles, and even my own knees. I thought there was something seriously wrong with my left knee a few weeks ago, put a 3-n-1 wrap on it for the rest of the day and night, then woke up and 80-90 percent of the pain was gone. Amazing! |

| Hard, hard, hard decision. Have everything, including the halters. Horses started chewing immediately. I would go with the blanket/hood. Use them together to keep muscles loose. Both of my mares get tight neck muscles and the hoods help incredibly.
Edited: tried to upload a picture from the Hawk-I Futurity. My poodle riding around on my mare with all her PHT stuff on. Too big a picture. Dang.

Location: Carpenter, WY | I haven't tried a PHT product yet, but ever since rideNslide said the poll paks were worth the money, I've wanted one to use on the young horses when they are tied for the first few times...it's only been about 5 years now since I heard how great they are, but haven't found one in my stocking yet

Location: Smack Dab in the Middle | Blankets! I mean, I like every PHT product I've gotten to try, but the blanket seems to have made the biggest differences for both my horses. Keeps them calm and relaxed pre-race...helps them recover faster and better post race...relieves soreness if needed...and keeps them eating and drinking on the road. |

Location: Buffalo, Wyoming | I have not had the pleasure of owning anything PHT yet but after the first of the year I plan on ordering a Poll pack for a nervous horse of mine and the 3N1 for my older mare that's hocks are fusing. I would really like to try the bells on a horse that has a really bad crack in his front foot. |

Location: CALIFORNIA | They are all great but my favorite has to be my magnetic hood. One of my horses had an accident at the trailer a while back and I believe that his PHT hood is the reason why he didn't have any permanent damage in his neck. |

My mare lives in hers when rodeoing. From the time she heads to the trailer until she is tuned out when we get home. It is taken off only when she is saddled. |

| Definitely the blanket or 3-n-1. I explained on fb why I liked the 3-N -1 so I'll say why I like the blankets. My mare gets freaked out at the slightest thing usually. Put a blanket on her and she is cool as a cucumber. Nothing bothers her!!! It makes her alot more agreeable!!
