  • Wispa is a buzzy horse & can become stressed in new situations such as competitions. She was also difficult to work with, lacking attention and focus. Since changing her feed to Cool & Collected she is like a different horse! She is focused and progressing quickly, and beginning to take new situations in her stride. I couldn't be happier with the way she looks from her weight to the shine on her coat.

  • Yoyo bless him turned 30 this year so we did decide to retire him as he wasn't coping well with the travelling to shows, however he is still doing fab and is on Veteran Vitality morning and night. Apart from a few grey hairs, the vet couldn't believe his age! So thank you!

  • My thoroughbred is very highly strung and he really struggles to keep weight on. I came across your new feed, Soothe & Gain! It does as it says on the bag! Since feeding Soothe & Gain, he has had no aggression and gained 9.4kg!! The feed soaks in 5 minutes and forms a lovely mash which he cannot wait to tuck into! This is also the most affordable method of weight gain feed I have ever tried! I cannot thank you all enough as I have battled with his weight for a long time now!

  • Linbrook Numero Uno (Teddy) has always looked great fed on Fast Fibre. I feed him this as a low sugar alternative to other types of mash because he is a typical native good doer! He is looking incredibly well and has a very shiny coat.

  • My mare Miss Molly has always had poor teeth and required regular check-ups due to diastema. During one of these check-ups in March 2017 my vets said that her teeth had deteriorated to the point where she could no longer eat hay as this would make her very uncomfortable.

    We substituted her hay ration for Fast Fibre and I couldn’t be more pleased with how this has worked. She is now 29 years old and has come through another winter looking fantastic.
    She really enjoys her bucket feeds and I am sure that without Fast Fibre we wouldn’t have her with us today. We treat it just as we do hay for my other pony and she’s very happy.

  • I love Allen & Page Feeds, as Alvin is particularly fussy but I have always found that he adores the soaked feeds like Calm & Condition, which he was on previously.

  • I wanted to thank you for your wonderful feeds. When we purchased Royal Opera, he was a bag of bones, with gastric ulcers and serious attitude. A hurdler of Cheltenham Festival ability, he had fallen on hard times through dubious owners. He is now fed on Calm & Condition, and is looking great, with a much improved attitude. He has since been retrained, and can be seen eventing at BE100, he also qualified for the 2018 ROR showing championships.

  • I struggled with Elmo’s weight last winter. I called Allen & Page who recommended Cool & Collected, which he loved. He definitely improved, however once the spring grass had been munched down he started to drop weight again. I reported back to Allen & Page who suggested moving Elmo up to Calm & Condition. He is now maintaining the perfect weight, looks fantastic and remained trainable. Thank you Allen & Page!

  • In 2013, Sam, now aged 19 retired from military duties as he had been diagnosed with navicular and arthritis in both hocks. On advice from Allen & Page’s very helpful nutritionists, during the challenging summer months, I have changed his feed from Fast Fibre to Veteran Light. Sam continues to compete at local shows winning best condition and working hunter classes. Sam is in very good condition, I am grateful for the help and advice given by the Allen & Page nutritionists.

  • Fast Fibre really brings out the best in Bear, and keeps him happy when he is stabled at shows as it takes him a while to eat it! In the last few years Bear has really found his feet and has a collection of rosettes to prove that. Fast Fibre keep him in great condition, especially his coat! Thank you to Allen & Page for bringing the best out of him, the results really prove it!
