Heza Lil Tonka After his loading doseof Summit and now on bi-weekly maintenance
Tonka on Thursday May 28th 2020 after his farrier appointment (just a trim) just feeling good. I now see him loping across the pasture at will, where he usually wouldn't trot unless forced. This horses story made me a believer in Summit!

Hesa Lil Tonka 4 days after his first Summit injection
Hesa Lil Tonka is a 27 year old AQHA gelding who has been a barrel and pole bending horse since age of 4 . He has severe arthritis in his hocks and has had adequan, Polygycon, yearly hock injections, all which were no longer helping. Their vet told his owners not to waste money on hock injections anymore as it wasn't helping. They were told to keep him comfortable with daily previcox and bute, which was also barely touching his pain. He lost weight over the winter, despite 24/7 hay and daily grain. (His teeth are in excellent shape still) I believe the pain/stress and bute were affecting his weight. I began his Summit journey on April 4th ,2020. The first video is before the Summit he was on daily previcox and you can see how lame he is. The rest of videos speak for themselves
Heza Little Tonka April 4th before Summit On Daily Previcox
Tonka is 27 years old and a retired barrel and pole horse. He is on Previcox in this video and this was as good as he could move. Forced movement would not want to move or trot or lope unless forced to.
