Ovitz happy with Guardian Pine Shavings
When my horse got sick we looked everywhere for a better solution for his stable bedding. Obviously Straw was not the answer as the quality of the product can not be guaranteed, and the supply isn’t always available. The original reason for us to use straw is because we couldn’t find a reliable provider of sawdust and pine shavings! No supplier in Queensland could guarantee a steady supply of consistent quality. And rather than having our horses on concrete we opted for straw. But with Ovitz getting so sick with a respiratory infection we couldn’t use straw anymore as it was too dusty.
We tried a number of options, some better than others, but when you take shipping to Queensland into consideration there really was only one option in the end: Guardian Pine shavings.
Yes – this product is imported from the US but it is still cheaper to use than some of the products I found locally.
One of the main benefits for me is the fact that these pine shavings are purpose made for horses. They are not a by-product of some building or construction site.. it is specifically created with the health of your horses in mind.
