Really seems to be helping my mare
Customer recommends this product
My pony seems a wee bit less reactive and more comfy with herself.
Customer recommends this product
Amazing, I had a well and truly stroppy mare who was so unpredictable and highly strung, two weeks later she is like a different pony! So much more relaxed and happy :)

Below are some recent questions we've received regarding Dodson & Horrell Stroppy Mare for Horses, including answers from our team.
Helen
Hi, is this product safe to feed to mare who is feeding her foal? Foal is 3 and a half months.
Thanks
You should not use Dodson & Horrell Stroppy Mare for nursing (lactating) mares. According to the manufacturer, this herbal blend is explicitly not to be fed to pregnant or nursing mares
Why?
Potential effects on milk production or foal health
Herbal interactions or hormonal impacts that could affect the foal
Regulatory or precautionary reasons from the manufacturer
Have you stopped doing stroppy
Have you stopped doing stroppy mare refill bags ?
Regards Ann .
Unfortunately, we no longer sell the 5kg refill bags of Stroppy Mare.

Will this help with calming my mare when stabling to make her more relaxed
Yes, Stroppy mare is specially developed as an effective to behavioural issues in hormonal mares, this natural herbal compound uses the well researched calming and soothing properties of Chamomile to provide long-lasting relief from stroppiness.
Ellie
I’m currently using stroppy mare for my mare she has recently gained a new stable buddy next to her and now does not seem relaxed in her stable would she be better on placid mix or can stroppy mare and placid mix be used together I’m pretty new to this sort of thing she was on placid mix when I brought her thank you
Stroppy Mare is mainly aimed at mares that are stressed when they are in season. It is safe to use outside of this time period but if you are not seeing any beneficial effects then I recommend using a general calmer, such as Placid. They share similar ingredients so I would not use both together as you will be giving an overdose of the product if combined.
Lauren
Do I keep feeding this or only feed it when my mare is in season?
This product can be safely used when your horse is in or out of season. It's intended use is for when your horse is 'stroppy' or unsettled as it provides a calming effect. It can be used when your horse is not in season if this calming effect is still needed.
Kim
When is it best to add to feed. My horse normally as one meal and this is around tea time. And how long will it take to see the results. Thanks
As long as the supplement is given once a day you can give it morning or evening so adding it to her feed at tea time is fine. Supplements like this seem to work better for some horses than others but you would hope to see a difference within a month.
Aimee holt
Hi there
I've just started my mare on regumate because she is having bad seasons which are causing her to be very sensitive in the canter and also try's to bite me when I do her girth up.
Would this product be ok to feed alongside regumate?
Thanks
Aimee
Yes, it would be perfectly acceptable to feed this supplement alongside Regumate since they work in different ways. There are no clinical studies to suggest how effective supplements like this are but people do report good results.
