We spoke a few weeks ago About the windsucking collars i purchased from
you for a thoroughbred mare and her foal. Here is proof that they both
enjoy it as a family activity.

Hell Beau, I hope that is not my windsucking
collar on her????
No dont worry that photo was taken while your collar was in the post. It
is an "id" tag on her neck.. She attempted to windsuck within ten
minutes with the collar but did not succeed.The collar was a success. I
weaned her foal last week and did not see the foal windsucking but i
guess she was to caught up with losing her mother and other horses
nearby. I was fencing yesterday and she was windsucking quite well by
herself. I bought two collars i think the collar might just be small
enough to fit her. I will find out soon enough.
Cheers Beau
* Does it work?
I get asked this often and I
have to say that I have not used it or tested it myself. I have sold
many but have never received any negative feedback. Only positive.
That is unnerving but I can only tell the Truth.
 A
Major Saddlery Chain has tried to copy this, made changes and it rubs
Horses necks!!!
The Miricle Collar has now been proved to not work adequately.
Just upgraded but I am not divulging how. :) 6/5/09

Hi John,
Just wanted to say thank you again for donating your windsucking
collar to Grace. She is doing MUCH better. I put it on loosely to
begin with and did it up a hole at a time so she could process what
was going on and give her body a chance to wean off the endorphins.
Now she's on the tightest hole I could go and doing really well. She
seems happy for the first time since she's been here and it's like
she's suddenly rediscovered the joy of food! She's finally stacking
on weight and everything is looking really good.
Thanks so much.
Jo :)

I would just like to drop you a line to let you know
how happy I am with my O’Leary Windsucking Collar. I have
tried every other collar on the market as well as all of the
systemic options on my horse Macushla an ex- racehorse, now eventer.
They worked for a short time and stretched (in the case of the
Miracle Collar, so that it no longer sat in the correct position
around the ears and consequently caused rubbing and great
discomfort. Other collars just caused rubbing after a short while. I
have been using the O’Leary for several weeks now and my horse is
not even bothering to try sucking and has gained a lot of weight,
(although he was always in good condition with a lot of effort
involved) and lost that ribby look that suckers have. He finishes a
meal and then goes straight out to graze. What a relief. There is no
rubbing and I now do not feel like the meanest person on Earth.
Thank you so much.
Sincerely,

Many Thanks Debra. It is amazing but
do you know that I rarely get feedback that they work. I know they
do and they must be with the vast majority because People soon
complain these Days so thanks heaps for taking the time. I have just
upgraded them (like everything...I am compulsive) Happy Horse and
that is what makes Life worth it. I'll tell Michael when I see him
soon.
Dear John,
First off, let me send my warmest wishes to Mrs HP, what a trooper!
Hopefully she is back home soon and on the steady path to recovery!
I just wanted to send you an email thanking you for the WONDERFUL
windsuck collar. I have tried everything to keep weight on my 10 yr
old Tb (of course you already knew the breed, didn’t you :p ), and
winter especially has been tough on him. He just wouldn’t eat!
Sucking on his posts was much more important. Prior to your collar
we had tried the regular metal ones (he worked out how to keep doing
it and broke one clean in half), the miracle collar, which left
bare, raw patches on him, sprays, electricity (he’d just find
something else) and even spreading his own manure on top of the
posts! Nothing worked, but I was scared to try the shock collars as
he is kept in a pasture, and I had horrible images of him being
zapped for hours if it malfunctioned!
His vet that first treated him post-racing injury (5 yrs ago) told
me of this amazing collar he had gotten from an ‘old bush horseman’,
which was more like a dog collar, had 2 buckles and was GUARANTEED
to work. He told me any saddler could make one. Well, having never
seen one myself, I tried several good saddlers, but they all
recommended the miracle collar... So you can imagine my excitement
to find them on your site!
My boy has been wearing it now basically 24/7, it only comes off for
grooming/riding etc, and has been through 1 full winter. He came
through winter looking amazing! Excellent weight, on nothing other
than constant access to grass hay, poor pasture and hard feeds only
after work. He is now the best he has looked in 5 years, but is
eating the least I have ever fed him in that time! This is also the
first colic free winter we have had J Best of all, there are no
sores or bare patches, the leather is still soft (even after LOTS of
mud rolls), and I can foresee many good years of use!
I can’t thank you enough for making my horse a joy to have, instead
of a constant heartache, and I’d recommend these collars to anyone!

" Hi John,
Just wanted to send you some feedback on the wind sucking collar I
bought from you.
Caesar is a 16.3hh 14 Y/O OTTTB that I brought home this time last
year; wonderful nature but as a result of a racing career, was a
chronic windsucker.
I was using one of those typical collars that you can pick up from
any old saddlery which was more like an ornament than a preventative
for his problem; basically it did nothing and in no time at all my
fences were a mess.
Sucking was the first and last thing on C’s mind - if he was
stressed he would suck, if he was waiting for his dinner he would
suck, if he was in between munching hay, he would suck. It was a
real mental problem for him that had manifested into a physiological
behavior, and it drove us both nuts.
I read about your new collar on your website, and the rest is
history!
Caesar has been wearing his collar for about a year now; it only
took two (2) or three (3) attempts to suck with the collar on before
he gave up and walked away; sucking is impossible with this collar,
it stopped immediately.
The transformation over the past year has been amazing; Caesar has
gone from a horse whose only interest was to suck (and as a result
withdrawn from the herd and us) to a horse that has a new lease on
life. He now initiates play with the youngsters and seeks out people
for a scratch and a carrot as opposed to latching onto
something/anything and sucking.
The collar itself has stood up to it all; wind, rain, heat etc..
It’s a beautiful piece of work that will last a lifetime.
Anyone that owns a windsucker should have this collar.
Pic to follow; I’ll take some happy snaps tonight!
Cheers,
Joyce "

Hi
John,
Hope Linda continues to improve and has no further set backs.
I wanted to thank you for the Windsucking collar I purchased around
a month ago... It has made a big difference for my gelding and he
now only licks the fence and (attempts) windsucks for short amounts
of time and increasingly less often as each week goes by. He is more
settled and is doing much better in his training too. :-)

Great collar.
Works perfectly on my 12.2 pony. We have used the nutcracker and the
miracle to no avail. The only other one that worked was the barclays
but that didn't last long. Great product. Very happy.
Thanks
Jackie
