"As always, the voice of equine nutrition reason. Clair is phenomenal when it comes to helping horse owners determine the best feeds and amounts for their horses…….Her fees are very reasonable to do an entire feed analysis and I highly recommend it."

"We had a very positive experience working with Clair Thunes, Equilibrate Equine Consulting, which we would like to share with others who are considering hiring an equine nutritionist. We purchased a thoroughbred who was underweight and underconditioned. We reside in a location convenient to Clair, so she was able to personally evaluate our horse as well as analyze the hay at our barn. Clair provided a tremendous amount of valuable education through this evaluation process, as well as in her written plan.
Clair designed a comprehensive diet for our horse which targeted the various important equine nutritional requirements. She also willingly researched various products and companies in an effort to save money, yet come up with the highest quality feed and supplements. Clair advised us that it might take several months to see meaningful results, yet within the first month, we were able to see a change in the quality of his coat, energy level, and weight. Our horse continued to improve with Clair's recommendations. I enjoyed working with Clair - it is clear that she has an incredible knowledge base regarding equine nutrition, and she is willing to share this with her clients. If you have the opportunity to work with Clair, you will undoubtedly benefit by her expertise."

"My personal experience with Clair was fantastic. I am a small breeder, long time horse fanatic(since I could walk), but new to breeding and certainly new to the complexity of feeding growing, lactating and performance sporthorses. A couple of qualities that I personally believe set Clair apart from most are her personal knowledge and desire to gain more knowledge. I have about 6 horses ranging from 0 to almost 20. Of particular concern is the first foal I bred, she turned out to be insulin resistant. Clair personally took my case on and did hours research and worked with my vet who uses Chinese herbs as part of the therapy, to come up with solutions that were simple and effective. I would strongly urge anyone that wants maximum performance what ever the discipline, even pensioners in the pasture, to consult with Clair about giving your horse the best chance of health by providing the right diet."
