I discussed my Labrador retriever's condition with you by phone back in September after months of unsuccessful attempts to control his itching and scratching, hair loss, and black skin. I have spent thousands of dollars at Purdue University and with other veterinarians who diagnosed his condition as allergy/atopy to dust mites, molds, grasses, trees, etc. We have tried allergy injections, Atopica/cylclosporine, Vit B injections, various costly herb formulations, bovine Ivermectin injections to rule out possible Demodex mange, and various corticosteroids, though I wished to avoid their use. The list goes on and on. Nothing has brought any relief to my lovable Labrador in two years of trying it all.
I very reluctantly purchased the Karbo Combo in September. I must tell you that I fully believe this product has finally helped my dog. His coat started to come back, his itching has not disappeared but is nowhere near the level at which it was, and his skin is pink and no longer fiery red or black. Everyone has commented that he looks so much better, and although we still have a way to go to get him back to his prior health, the Karbo Combo appears to have really helped my dog.
I just wanted to let you know.
I will be ordering another supply in a bit, but wish to let you know I so appreciate your time discussing this with me and your suggesting the product.
Thank you and Happy Holidays!!!

To: All horse owners,
I own two quarter horses and two Friesians, the quarter horses are both performance horses, reining and reined cow horse. All four of them are on daily Karbo Combo regimen. When I first heard of Karbo Combo I was skeptical of all the claims made,they sounded too good to be true. After using the pellets, I can now say with confidence that Karbo Combo does what it claims to do. Our horses have never coliced and have been tested regularly for worms. I haven't used a dewormer in 8 months best product I have used thanks to Gomers Inc. I will be a life long customer.

I started my barrel horse on the Epic II CL and the Karbo Pellets about a month ago. She had lost weight, her coat was dull, her performance was down and she showed symptoms of EPM. After 30 days on the double dose of these products and some time off, she is a different animal! She has gained back at least 150 lbs and is working like never before! I plan to keep her on the maintenance does of Karbo Combo and get my other horse on the program too. Thank you, I am so glad I found out about your product.

Hello all at Gomers Inc,
Wanted to get these pictures to you. Just one of the amazing examples of our horses that made huge improvements quickly. She has been quicker to improve than some. It was fun to go do chores because everyday in a 2 week period this mare looked better. As you can see she looked pretty tough. It didn't seem to matter what she ate or what we did this mare did not improve. We are pretty sure that she had EPM. We are praising God for helping find and learn about Karbo Combo. He truly does care about his creation just like He talks about in the book of Jonah. I am also sending an after picture of her. It was taken after 3 weeks but she looked that good even at 2 weeks. I just did not get around to getting the picture taken until 3 weeks. God bless you all as you help to bring healing to God's creatures. What a blessing!!! Hope to meet you all one day, if not here then in heaven.
With sincere thanks,

I wanted to take some time to thank you for an OUTstanding product. I received a rescue horse in Nov 2008. The first 2 days he couldn't even stand to eat and had to be hand fed. I just wasn't able to put weight on him and he seemed to have a loss of coordination. I called my vet back out to re-evaluate him. In mid-Dec 2008 we finally got a diagnosis. He has EPM. What a heartbreaker for me. I have been laid off from my job since June and there was just no way I could afford 800.00 a month for 1 to 3 months for the treatment with Marquis. My vet put Cash on steroids for 10 days and I was left with a heartbreaking decision. Could I come up with the money to treat Cash or would I have to put him down? He had absolutely no coordination in the left hind quarter. He could barely get around at a walk and no way could he trot orcanter.He would just stand all day with his head hanging down. Sometimes he would finish hisfeed but most times he wouldn't. A few days later my farrier came out to do feet. He recommended I call Vivian Binder in Arapahoe, NC. He told me that she could tell me about a product that was showing great success in treating horses with EPM and was considerably less expensive than Marquis. I called Vivian and she explained to me how Karbo-Combo worked and I put in an order. I cannot tell you what a God send this product has been. I started Cash on 2 ounces 2x a day and noticed a marked improvement within a couple of weeks. Within 1 month he had put on much needed weight and was now trotting down the pasture and kicking up his heels!!! He is now there to meet me at feeding time with his head held high and almost up to a normal weight. I am attaching a couple of pictures (see below) for you to see what a wonderful result your product has produced in my sweet boy. Cash is still on the 2oz 2x a day dosage until his weight recovers completely and his system can fight off the protozoa. I will then keep him on a maintenance dose. I tried lowering the dose but he almost immediately started to get down again. Keep in mind that this horse was more than 350 pounds underweight when he arrived and had only put on about 50 pounds before the Karbo-Combo treatment.
My sincerest regards,

"Kid was 25 years old when he was adopted from a shelter this summer. When he arrived at his new home he weighed 874 pounds. I started him on Karbo Combo and was absolutely amazed at the results. Within two weeks I could see a noticeable weight gain. His coat became so soft - almost like velvet. In two months, Kid gained almost 50 pounds. During those first two months, Kid was not being ridden so his weight gain was not due to increase in muscle mass. Now that Kid has reached a healthy weight, I am going to keep using Karbo Combo so that he can continue to benefit from all that it does. I want to thank Karbo Combo for playing such an important role in the rehabilitation of my beautiful rescued Appaloosa."

Dr. Smith,
I want to sincerely Thank You for producing the Karbo products. My colt "Max" was treated for EPM this past June and while it made a difference, he had still not regained enough strength in his hindquarters to undergo a chiro adjustment 4 months after being treated. This well known equine chiro suggested I contact you and to get Max started on the Karbo/EPIC CL as soon as possible.
Although I have to admit that I was somewhat skeptical, I was so discouraged by Max's lack of progress I figured I'd give it a try. First of all I have to comment on how patient you were with me on the phone when I first placed the order. You took the time to explain the product, the changes I could expect to see in my horse and you encouraged me to stay in touch regarding his progress which I did. You were very responsive with my email questions and I was impressed with how quickly you emailed back. Next, the product arrived very quickly, within 3 business days - another plus!
Finally and most importantly.. after feeding the Karbo for only ONE MONTH my colt has progressed so much that even the chiro was amazed at the level of strength he had regained and said he was a completely different horse! "Max" now knows where his back feet are and I was told to start giving him steady workouts to rebuild his muscles - something I am more than happy to do and something I thought I might never be able to.
So thank you from the bottom of my heart for the product you have developed as well as your time. I will continue to keep Max on a maintenance level of Karbo going forward and I have since recommended Karbo to friends touting all of it's benefits!
I wanted to give you an update on Morgan. She has been slowly, but steadily improving.
She has an occasional day where she is not as good (as far as walking and leg control)
as the day before, but has had no major relapses. I just started walking her in her
paddock this evening. With all of the snow and ice, it has been very difficult to find an
area large enough, but the snow and ice have now melted.
I just ordered another 10# of Karbo Combo. It is doing the trick. She has lost about 75
pounds, with not being able to stand in one place for a few seconds. However, seems to be
holding her own with the weight issue now. She has been able to stay at the feeder
continuously for about two weeks. This has saved me a lot of time; as I was spending
more than an hour each feeding hand feeding her.
Thank you so very much for the Karbo Combo. I am telling other horse people and friends and people at tack shops, etc., so that another horse and owner hopefully will not
have to suffer the way that we and Morgan have.
Dear Doc,
Thanks for talking to me a few weeks ago about the karbo combo pellets. My thoroughbred, CJ, was diagnosed with EPM on Nov 1, 2007 and after 5 weeks of the Marquis he had improved but was still very clumsy with his hind leg and could not support a rider at the walk. The day before I started him on the pellets, he was found laying down in the pasture and couldn't get up (likely fell or went down to roll and couldn't rise without our help). After one week of the pellets, he was not only trotting in the pasture but actually had that beautiful floating gait of a strong, coordinated horse. This week (12/17/07) he is able to carry a rider at the walk. You are welcome to post this on your web site if you find it useful.

I just wanted to thank you for your help last month on the phone. After 1 week on the Karbo Kombo I couldn't believe my horse with epm had improved so much. As well, my mare with laminitis is back to her old self . . . . and then some! So now all 3 of my horses are on it, and off all the other supplements I was feeding. The improvement in their energy, focus and attitude is amazing - other people are starting to notice and ask what I have been doing.
Just had my old stallion collected again to see if the addition of KarboCombo to his diet has improved his fertility.
Previous collections were running around 95 million/ml and 80% progressively motile sperm. Approximately 50ml of gel free produced.
Last collection was 128 million/ml, 80% pms and 90ml of gel free produced. This is a substantial and quantifiable improvement.
Am still working on breeding mares for the year but have yet to run any of my intensive protocols and the mares appear to have better uterine clearance on the KarboCombo without the use of antibiotic infusions, plasma infusions and every six hour oxytocin injections ...what a time and money saver this will be for me... I look forward to giving you a full report at the end of the breeding season.
Dr. Smith,
I have used Karbo Combo Pellets for almost 1 year and have noticed a difference on how my horses feel & look. I keep my performance horses on Karbo Combo Pellets and have not had one get sick since I started using this product. I am anxious to see how breeding season goes this year. I have put my broodmares on Karbo Combo Pellets.
I have a brood mare (Missouri Foxtrotter) after foaling in March of 2005 and again in 2006 would not gain weight back. In 2006 she continued losing weight even after weaning the foal. I talked to the feed company and they recomended giving her a feed with higher fat content and feeding 12-14 lbs per day. I was worming her every 6 weeks using different types of wormer. Nothing worked. I then began feeding a 12% feed plus adding whole oats and beet pulp of equal parts. Total of 3 gal per day. A friend of mine sugested giving her Karbo Pellet Combo. For the next 2 weeks I gave her 4 oz with her feed. The next 3 weeks 2 oz per day. Then I oz per day the next 9 weeks. Now after 6 months I am still giving her the same feed mix (12% with whole & beet pulp) at 1/2-3 gal per day. She has gained weight, energy is back, the sparkle in her eye, and looks good. I plan on breeding her this spring.
We used Karbo Powder every day for two months on new pups and moms, we did not use any Albon like we use to do the last 10 days that pups were here.
The first testing of stools at 7 weeks showed 2 cocci eggs in one
litter and none in the other.
We were having big problems with tons of eggs in the stools and really
having hard time and having to put the pups on SMZ and Albon in big
doses.
The veterinarian which you met over phone retested the stools
today and wow no cocci or giardia!
I am very very impressed now ! This has been great for both of us as
we have had problems for last few years with both parasites. Coming and going.
John my significant other is using the Powder on our Bengal Kittens & Cats and has seen a big improvement in stools and they are eating better, these kittens were sick last month and he lost one at the vets office, he seemed to think the kittens got Cat virus, they have done a full circle just in two weeks on this Powder. They are
strong and have no problems and gotten well on this Karbo Powder.
Amazing per both my Vets.
Wow we are impressed and pleased to say the least.
We will be glad to be a reference for you at any time, I will also
post this email.
I am sending you on The Doodle Breeders Chat site and more as there
are a lot of Breeders that may want to try this Karbo Powder for their
dogs and litters.
My Adults are on it daily and even my Pregnant Girls are on the Karbo Powder.
Our veterinarian commented on seeing a big improvement in the puppies and felt they were stronger and more solid pups and extremely healthy than ever before..
Thank you so much for sending this to us and we look forward to a long and lasting relationship with you.
I want to thank you very much for sending Karbo Combo to my sister in Spokane. We have seen a difference within a week...more of an appetite while on the road. Again, thank you very much.
