"...Every hundredth of a second counts in barrel racing.  So when I am trying to get that little edge over the competition, I rely on Hoof Freeze, Wind Aid, Cool Cast, Ice-O-Gel and Sole Pack.  I have been able to maintain peek performance using Hawthorne Products.  I use Hoof Freeze to take the sting out of my horses feet so that they will stride out and turn harder.  Wind Aid helps my barrel horses to breeth freer and that allows them to run harder also.  Ice-O-Gel and Cool Cast help the barrel horses to feel better post race and recover better.  That of course, allows them to perform better in the following barrel race.  The Sole Pack Hoof Packing is great under your shoe pads and also to pack a horses foot that is tender and traveling to the next race.  The Sole Pack Dressing has always keep my horses feet in great shape.  "A good horse has to have a good foot or, you won't win much."
I have won just about everything there is to win in the California Barrel Racing Circuit.  Barrel Racing is our business and our life.  So, I am not going to change what has been working.  I can use your products right before racing and get that winning edge..."

"...Thank you, thank you, thank you for your incredible products.  I train and race endurance horses. It is a very demanding equestrian sport on many types of conditions and terrains.  Hawthorne Products have been a part of my training program.  I always carry SolePack in my Easyboots just in case I lose a shoe on the trail and it offers soothing comfort.  The SolePack dressing helps keep my horses hooves in excellent
condition all race season.  Ice-O-Gel is another amazing product. The results are immediate to help tighten the legs after a race or hard workout.  I know I can depend on Hawthorne for safe and effective products to keep my horses in competition..."
Thanks again,

"...Hope all is well. Thought I would email this information to you. I was at Churchill Downs Sunday morning, following up with a few trainers who received Trainer Welcome Bags, and other samples.  When I visited the barn of Tom McCarthy, he was in the process of opening a packet of SOLE PACK, to apply to General Quarters. This is the only horse he trains!!! But, the horse has earned over $1 million!!! Had a terrible trip in the 2009 KY Derby. Recently won the Grade 1 Woodford Reserve Turf Classic for $500,000, and this weekend ran 3rd in the Grade 1 Stephen Foster Handicap.  Tom McCarthy said he loved the product samples you guys sent. He then said to let you guys know if you wanted to use General Quarters in ads or other promotions, he would be more then willing to endorse Hawthorne Products.  If its OK, I would like to give him your phone number to call..."

"...back in August/September of 2008, I called desperately seeking help with the white line fungus that overtook my three mares.  The oldest, Zoolie, had had more than half of her outer hoof wall cut back to expose the fungus to light and air but to no avail.  She could hardly walk and this method of treatment for over one and a half years was not proving successful.
After I spoke to you bother and you so generously sent the necessary products without charge, I was sure I had the right remedy.  I recall your confidence Done when you said to me, “When these products work, (not if they work) please drop me a note.”   Well, the treatment worked!  I’m sorry the note took so long, but until the outer hoof walls grew down, it was a difficult task to treat the hooves effectively.
I can greatly report, that the girls are doing great!  All but one is completely cured, and the remaining shows less and less of the fungus.  With all the rain and mud we’ve had here in the northeast, the hoof freeze and sole pack have proven effective in combating the white line fungus.
I cannot thank you enough for your great advice, products and most of all your caring and generous attitudes..."
Very truly yours,

"...Just a short note to let you know (the) package arrived and (I) saw some improvement within a couple of days.  I just wish I could express how very thankful I am to you for what you did for Dawn.  I am so very touched that you did so much to help us.  There is a place in "heaven," I am sure, for those who care for those who cannot speak.  Wonderful You!  If ever I can do anything to repay you - please please let me know.
With much gratitude,
Carol and Dawn (and Rusty....)
