  1. Aimee

    Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    With having a young pony fireworks that were nearby came to a bit of a shock, plus with the added thunderstorms she was so unsettled and jumpy.
    My pony has been on the calmer pro and a calming cookie for just a week and she is already so much more settled within herself.
    She loves them.
    Thank you to the team at equine exceed for always being there with your support always feels like talking to family. And always made so welcome 🤗

    Game changer

    Calmer bites have changed everything for star and I. He has one 20 before a show and he is amazing. In March we did the dressage championship which we have never done before. This was amazing so Chill. This has put the gun back into shows for me
    Thank Dawn and Star

    absolute life saver

    these are absolutely incredible, I’d recommend to anyone wanting a calmer more focused horse in any situation- I use them all the time out competing, hacking etc.

  4. Jaqi

    Amazing

    I am so glad to have discovered these. They take the edge off my sharp TB out hacking. Since his awful experience of fireworks 3 years ago he has been a nightmare every November. Thanks to these he is so much better, these are not miracle workers but they make a real and positive difference to his outlook. The reduced stress is really lifting for him, it’s wonderful.

    They work a treat!

    We give a Calmer Bite when we are plating up in the morning before a show and it makes a noticeable difference in preventing the sloppy poos, and stressy horse whilst waiting to load up in the lorry. It definitely takes the edge of an otherwise stresshead of a competition horse! He likes the taste and enjoys the treat. Calmer Pro is also great in his feed for the night before if a bit extra is needed.

  6. LESLEY SUTTON

    Has worked for my new boy

    Having tried many different calmers, these are the first ones I have found that actually work.

  7. Jane

    Fantastic

    Gave our young pony one of these before her first ever show. She’s usually quite a spooky nervous sort especially in new situations. She was incredibly calm all day at the show & did not bother about anything!

  8. Diana Davison

    JUST THE JOB FOR TAKING THE EDGE OFF

    I have used calmer bites for the past couple of years with my TB when he is being shod. Just takes the edge of him and keeps him calm and sensible during hot shoeing process. Life is better with calmer bites, stress free !

    Calmer bites

    Use these for my boy when out on a hack and they have proved to be a game changer for him so much so my friend also borrows him and uses them for her horse that her niece part loans and they defo help with brakes for him also so everyone happy 😃

  10. Sarah

    Perfect for taking the edge off

    I use calmer bites in a competition setting or when I’m taking my horse into an exciting or potentially stressful situation. I find them brilliant for just taking the edge off and allowing the horse to focus and listen more easily, without having any impact on their energy levels or responsiveness.
