FOR WHEN YOUR HORSE NEEDS TO LOOK ON THE BRIGHTER SIDE OF LIFE.

Your horse's mood sets the conditions for the entire day, every day, including your ride and/or training as it has a huge influence on his/her performance and overall well-being.

Happy Horse, Happy Rider... and sometimes, that just needs a little helping hand to make it happen which is why we set our sights on formulating not just another "calmer" but an equine nootropic that helps your horse to find its zen, it's happy place inside itself where he/she wants to listen to you too, and he/she can finally make that all-important connection with you without removing the edge required for competition.

INSTRUCTIONS

Each horse will need a different amount of Buck-Off to find its Perfect Zen.

We recommend that you begin with the Starting Feeding Rate for the first 7 days and increase to the Secondary Feeding Rate if more effect is needed.

It is essential that you split the amounts below between morning and evening Feeds. For example, on a 30ml Feeding Rate, you would give your horse 15ml in the morning feed and 15ml in the evening feed.

STARTING FEEDING RATE

Pony : 10ml per day.
Pony / Small Horse : 20ml per day.
Horse / Large Horse : 30ml per day.

SECONDARY FEEDING RATE

Pony : 20ml per day.
Pony / Small Horse : 30ml per day.
Horse / Large Horse : 40ml per day.

IS BUCK OFF SUITABLE TO USE IN COMPETITION?

BUCK OFF contains no banned substances in accordance with the FEI, BHA and the Jockey Club, and is suitable for competition at all levels, in all countries, including the United States.

All NAKED HORSE products are subject to stringent quality control, toxin screened and are produced in our own award-winning laboratories in France.

WHY IS BUCK OFF A LIQUID?

A liquid form is readily assimilated and therefore is quickly absorbed in the tissues of your horse’s mouth and throat, providing a calming effect in as little as 30 minutes. Powdered or pill forms must go through the entire equine digestive tract, breaking down the delicate molecules and taking far longer for any remaining available active ingredients to reach your horse's bloodstream.

It's all in the vegan blend...

KEY INGREDIENTS

Withania Somnifera: Ashwagandha root (Withania somnifera) is an excellent addition to your horse's menu! It's an adaptogenic herb, meaning that if you are catatonic it awakens you, or if you are overly anxious it calms you, essentially providing balance. Ashwagandha's function is to provide protection to the nervous system.

Ashwagandhai is proven to have anti-stress, antioxidant, adaptogenic, and beneficial endocrinological activities. By offering Ashwagandha, you may be able to ease your horse's distress.

Passiflora: Widely acknowledged as a key ingredient for anxiety, tension and irritability, passionflower can be of benefit to horses who are generally nervous and apprehensive as well as those who are distressed and restless due to a current illness or environment.

Passion Flower has also been found to be very beneficial when used in conjunction with other herbs to assist with bad behaviour in mares.

Lemon Balm: Lemon Balm Extract (Melissa officinalis) - A herb known for its useful effects on anxiety, helping to calm horses (and people and dogs) naturally.
Lemon Balm can help address all states of anxiety. Especially beneficial to those that are learning to cope with training, competition and new environments.
It has a soothing effect on the central nervous system and also the gastrointestinal tract.

L-Theanine: L-Theanine is a natural extract from green and black tea , used to promote a happy, calm and relaxing state.

LIQUID VS POWDERS

 

Based on clinical studies, not all the vitamins that you take are absorbed. It is the same for horses too, a lot of the vitamins we feed them end up going to your muck heap!

Liquid vitamins show an absorption rate of 98% while powders/capsules/solids can range from only 3 to 30%.

The National Advisory Board states that 100mg consumed in a solid form (tablet/capsule/powder) translates into a concentrate of only 8.3mg or 8.3% in the blood. Not only are liquids more efficiently absorbed, but they are also absorbed faster as they're readily assimilated. (PH Bennett, S Haffner, BL Kasiske, WF Keane, CE, National Advisory Board, - Am J Kidney Dis, 1995)

The Physician's Desk Reference states that 85-90% of nutrients in a liquid supplement are absorbed in 22-30 seconds.
Physician's Desk Reference (page 1542, #49)

You see, it's not just about 'what's in' your supplements, but it's how they're going to be used!

2* EVENT RIDER
"One of my eventers, Elvin, is fabulously talented but he’s super sensitive, highly responsive and his default can be a bit frantic which means he wants to rush and not allow me to really ride and support him. He’s flashy so the dressage judges love him and he’s so careful, we haven’t had a show jump down in competition since I’ve had him. We consistently go into the cross country phase in contention, but as the tracks got bigger and stiffer with more questions that require controlled speed, we started unravelling and throwing away podium placings for an unnecessary glance off. I thought I just needed to learn to ride better but when a professional event rider also found him ‘unreasonable’ as he got more frantic around the cross country, I knew something had to change or he couldn’t be the horse to take me up through the levels, despite his athleticism. Within weeks of starting him on Buck Off, he’s relaxed and our partnership and trust in each other is on another level. He’s still very much ‘Elvin - Ferrari’ but we can school on a hack without going ‘medium’ trot everywhere and having to have the handbrake permanently on. He’s rideable and listening to me and it’s no coincidence we took the win when we stepped back up for our first open Novice at Tweseldown. Really exciting times ahead and thanks to Buck Off, my dreams just got bigger!"

"Since having Noisette on Buck Off I have seen a significant improvement in her behaviour and ability to settle in her dressage test. For horses that can get a bit lit up and tense I can not recommend Buck Off highly enough.
I look forward to seeing the continuing progress whilst using this product."

"This is Sameh El Dahan - I have just started using buck off on my main horse WKD Toronto who has stepped up this year to the global champions tour - at nine years old he is a super talented but sometimes an over-exuberant horse and I have already noticed he is more relaxed and easier to work with ! I am looking forward to him jumping this week in New York and fingers crossed it will be a good show !"
