I have been using Ulcergard for my horse when he has to travel and go to horse shows. With the stress of competition and transport I want him protected from stomach ulcers.

First, I love ulcergard. I give it to my horses before trailering. Entirely Pets had it as a great price, so I bought three. Then someone stole the package or mistakenly picked it up, because it never arrived. It wasn't insured, so the US Postal service couldn't do anything. But Entirely Pets sent another package--I will be back to order from them again. They are fabulous people.

I wouldn't let my horse travel or show without having this product in my tack box. It helps him cope with the stresses of showing and I don't worry so much about him getting ulcers.

Best price for a "must have" product!
April 10, 2012
This the best price anywhere on UlcerGard - about $15 per tube less than the local tack store - and my order came very quickly. I also realized that I've been buying small animal products from EntirelyPets through Amazon.com, and have always been happy with the prices and services. I'll be ordering again for all my pets.

We never go to the show without it!

Ulcergard has changed some of our show horses' behaviors dramatically. We use it for each & every show, and our vet, whose wife is a trainer, uses it himself on their show horses, starting the day before they haul out. Nothing else available has given us these results, and according to a recent article in Equus, it's the best product out there to reduce stomach acid.

This product works for preventing ulcers in horses. My horse has not had his symptoms recur since I started using Ulcergard as a preventive before travel and shows. EntirelyPets shipped the order in a timely fashion, and they had a competitive price as well. I like the auto reorder option. That way I don't have to dig out my receipt to figure out who I ordered from last time. I can still research the price before allowing the order to refill automatically. This has been a successful online product purchase. I have not found this product available at local feed and tack stores.
