    Tonight when I walked out to the barn, my little Morgan, Wren, CANTERED up from the lower pasture, tossing his head, feeling good.

    A year and a half ago, Wren could barely walk. Then, I heard about THA. Some of you have been with me on this journey.

    THANK YOU, Doc T!

    The proof this program works was in that canter and I will forever be grateful for the knowledge shared.

    Wren’s person, Linda

    Thank you, Linda! I am honored to have your thanks, but you must give yourself credit. You found my work, dug in, and took action. You asked questions, attended live meetings, and maintained patience to follow through until you saw Wren canter in the field, which made your heart sing.

    I have more work to do to get the message out. Because of Wren’s success, I know you will help spread it, and I am so grateful for that. So, my thanks to you, too! Doc T

    Wren is a 14.1 traditional bred Morgan and I’ve always dreamed about the day I could hitch him and go for a drive. I’ve hung on to that dream for over 7 years as we battled lameness and metabolic issues. Several times, I thought I would lose him. Then, almost 2 years ago I found THA program. This summer we fought a trimming issue causing him soreness, and a painful hoof abscess. When he was sound, we continued driving preparation/training, and then something would happen, and he needed weeks of recovery. Thru it all, I did my best to follow the program because I saw him to continue to grow healthier. His weight is good, he looks good, his playful spirit slowly returned.

    I write this to share, it isn’t an easy journey, but don’t give up! Stay true to the THA program and see the progress.

    On Tuesday, I drove Wren for the very first time! My dream came true! When I shared this news with friends and family, I received many heartfelt responses, because all knew how long this journey has been, and how many obstacles we overcame. Wren is the poster pony for THA 😊

    Thank you, again, Dr. Tucker!

      ❤ I am so grateful to you for searching for answers, trying something different, and telling others of your success. This change in the fundamentals of feeding is a prolonged process for many horses when factors with ill effects are given for years. It’s like turning a colossal boat around, often in rough seas. We all look forward to reports of future successes, as there will be many.

      Thank you – Doc T
