What people are saying

Rogan Asken

“Northlands Stables couldn’t do without our ‘Korber’ walker or their service and support – The equine walker is an addition to most top competition yards in SA in the recent past. The walker definitely enhances soundness and helps to reduce colic incidents. Ideal for loosening horses before work, as well as stretching, relaxing and cooling horses after work or competition.”

“I have found that the horses have muscled and toned up really well, they are looser when they start to work and I find that it keeps them calmer. I think for them to walk consistently also helps with their soundness.”
