The Endo-aids are the most amazingly effective tool I have ever seen. Absolutely every horse, every breed, every age, every discipline of horse in the clinic welcomed it eagerly... Every solution to every problem became simple even for a novice to do. What I saw JP accomplish in 3 days with a beginner rider and her 30 year old Appaloosa was incredible.
