Pavo

Pavo is sponsoring all feeds for all the horses, and we are – with Pavo – making an individual feeding schedule for the horses, one by one.

Horses are different and therefore they of course have special and individual needs. Common for all horses is a healthier and better choice in Pavo for an optimized career. Whether if you have a foal, youngster, breeding mare/stallion, racer, hunter, show jumper, eventer, or whatever it might be – Pavo will help you make your horse even healthier, happier, and better performing.

I know it looks fancy in pink and silver – but does it work?

When we changed to Pavo, I had three high-performing ponies, and they were all spectacularly good in both daily work and at competitions. Pavo promised us to give the ponies at least 20% more energy, concentration, stamina – and better results.

Immediately changes came. Not only could I feel happier ponies with more energy in the daily work, we could also see the ponies shape and fur (they were very! well fed and fit before) getting better.

But what does it matter if they’re only good at home? We all know, that we primary perform better when training. 2010 (the year we began to feed with Pavo) me and my ponies were of course better prepared for the competitions than 2009, because I had more routine. – But what does routine mean if the pony or horse are too skinny, too fat, too lazy, or just lacked from energy? Nothing!

So actually my totally non-experienced pony, Orchard Freedom Scan, did an amazing season. He was ending it with a super dressage as a highly focused pony, top-performance and clear round on the hardest pony-cross country course ever seen at a European Pony Championship – and as an amazingly prepared, ready, and fit pony on the show jumping day. Fantastic clear round in the SJ as well! Thanks to who? Pavo!

My more experienced pony, Multistar Scan, dealt in 2009 with a lot of trouble getting a little dizzy in the end of a 1* XC-course. She was also breathing heavily after performing. She didn’t make the time in any one stars. In 2010 she did not go over time in XC one single time – not even in the two stars. Also, her worst show jumping was one pole down in the European CH. Qualifier (2*).

Now when looking at my horse, Carisma, we also see the changes, but in a different way. She is – as Lærke (pre. rider and owner) says it: BORN FIT. That is for sure true. So what can Pavo offer a horse that doesn’t need the energy and improved stamina?

When we got Karry, she never ate up. Also, her fur was not really soft and shiny, it was a bit greasy, and she didn’t have much of it. What Pavo gave in just two months and a bit … Doesn’t these pictures say it all?

Also, the latest result coming from Pavo has in one week (from the first til second picture) changed my new horse, Ziggy Marley m2s, in such a way that most people say are insane, crazy, and not possible. How do you feel? Like Carisma he didn’t touch his food (not even his SlobberMash!) when he first came. Now he’s eating his meals so fast you can barely wink before it’s all gone.
