Q: I attended a seminar
in a local University of Veterinary medicine on Headshaking by a well
known research doctor, and I have also read extensively other
research articles on the internet and magazines. I wonder why these people
do not explain in length the wonderful results and benefits from your
horse mask and sunshades. I know first hand, having a horse with Headshaking
and using your product, and seeing the extraordinary results
and benefit. I have also seen in the many articles and magazines, at the
end of their article, they show a picture of your product, the name, and
phone number, along with a few words of praise about your mask. Why do
these people not share the information with other veterinarians and the
public?
A: The Multi-Purpose
Guardian Mask with 95% sunshades is
inexpensive, durable, easy to use, comfortable, and offers results beyond
compare. We believe our product has generated the highest rate of success
more so than any high cost medications. With Guardian Mask, we
focus on the lives and comfort of horses as well as the education of the
public and in recent years we are also working to educate Veterinarians

professionals that see the true benefits, and Guardian Mask has now drawn
their attention.

heavy duty nylon thread in a zigzag. The longest reported life span

Q: My horse had a bad
case of Headshaking, I had 4 different veterinarians, including a
University, examine him and each one said it was a behavior problem, and
that the behavior was caused by the owner being neurotic. I
have come across this attitude with many people in the industry, Is
it really this simple? From the first minute that I put on the Guardian
Mask with sunshades, he has never done the Headshaking once. Why in this
day and age do so many professional people have this attitude?
A:
Unfortunately there has been no University, local nor Government
agency, or Veterinarian that has contacted Guardian Mask
to inquire about research with the Guardian Mask products. The
amount of professionals that still are unaware of the benefits these
Guardian Mask products provide is astounding. There are many
factors involved, however Guardian Mask will continue to work
successfully and the word will continue to spread of it's success until
Universities and veterinarian's realize the potential.
Professional attitudes are changing rapidly regarding these products and
if horse owners continue to speak up, it might help
the professionals understand the horse owners needs. Too many
Veterinarians and Universities are hiding this well known secret!
Q: I found your web
site, and I purchased a mask for my horse that has been diagnosed with
Uveitis, and when I received it and tried it... it worked! My horses eyes
are clear and I have no reoccurring problem, and was able to discard all
my medications, but when I told my vet about the results, he was
completely indifferent, I would think he would be interested in this great
product and would use it in his practice.
A: The proof is in the
horses that Guardian Mask products have helped. The proof is also in our
countless phone calls and in our testimonials. Veterinarians and
Universities are still learning about the benefits. It is just a matter of
time.
Q: My horse had a bad
case of Uveitis, and we were treating him with well known medications for
several months but with no results. After all the medications, my vet told
me she had heard of a mask that might help. I searched the internet and I
found your web site , purchased your mask with the sunshades. After
putting the mask on, we had results within a few days. We stopped the meds
and his eyes are back to normal. We were able to get back into our old
routine. My question is, why did the veterinarian spend these months
of treatment at a great expense to me and with no change, prolong
suffering, then finally recommend a mask as an alternative. It
would have saved time and expense not to mention the pain my horse went
through.
A: Since
the results from using the Guardian Mask are positive, Guardian Mask
should be used as a vital component
in aggressive treatment. Until now, it is the horse owners
themselves that have found Guardian Mask, used it on their horses, and
experienced the results. We are constantly working to introduce Guardian
Mask to the world and focusing on veterinarians and universities. It
is the horse owners to date that have helped in this effort by sharing
their discovery.
Q: My horse suffers from
Uveitis and my vet has used the standard medications with no results and
now is recommending me to consider an eye operation called the
"Cyclosporine Implants" that would cost $700.00 to $1500.00 dollars.
I am not excited about this nor the great expense, what are your thoughts?
A: We are starting to hear
about this method more and more, it is a very expensive and painful
procedure that is still being
researched and only reported to work temporarily. The best alternative
to this day is the Guardian Mask with
95% Sunshades. No pain, low expense and a proven product. Read the
testimonial section of
our web site!
Our feedback section is a
result of thousands of conversations with customers that have used
the Guardian Mask products. We invite everyone including
veterinarians and universities to share their comments by phone,
or
email.
Our goal is to help horses,
share information, and help anyone that is involved in working with
equines.
