(Trademe Review) "I would like to thankyou Kim for attending to my customers horses teeth. Very articulate, professional and most importantly honest in her work is Kim; having trained under one of the best-her dad Bruce. You will also find Kim is able to give fairly prompt, mainly unsedated and a very reasonably priced service. Keep up the good work. A balanced mouth is paramount in enabling me to relax any contracted muscles." Jo Jenner Bowen Equine Therapy Ltd chevaux Wed 15 Feb 2012
"Apart from being a great horse dentist, Kim Neill has an unexplainable talent for healing horses with old and new injuries. Macs Black on arrival home from Kim Neill after pre-season treatment on an old injury. He came home in
immaculate condition, happy, healthy and sound! Should you have a horse with a new or old injury that you can't get on top of, I would highly recommend getting in contact with Kim. Her care and treatment of our horse has been amazing and 3 years on he is still hunting." - Tracy Dalzell, 2012

"I've had long-term issues with my mare regarding random bucking and extreme ear-shyness - for several years before I bought her she had not been bridled or unbridled without a twitch! Having exhausted all other avenues, I happened to ask Kim when she came to do our horses' teeth, if she could help. She immediately identified the
problem areas and did a little work with my mare, but I knew such deep-seated issues as hers would need more than one treatment so I took her to Kim's and left her there for a week.
Kim worked with her daily and when I picked her up she was a far calmer, more relaxed horse than I had dropped off the week before. I brought her home and the next day I rode her - for the first time in 5 weeks - I'd been unable to even get on her prior to taking her to Kim. I now have my mare back, happy in herself and a joy to ride again.
Kim gave me some "homework" to do with my mare, and following her instructions, my mare has continued to improve even further.
I'm also really impressed by Kim's on-going interest in my horse and her follow-up emails etc. She does genuinely
care about her "patients" and is only too happy to offer help and advice.
I'm not exactly sure what it is that Kim does, but the proof of the pudding is in the eating! She certainly made a big
difference to my mare. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone with one of those problems that no-one else seems to be able to help with.
Again, thank you Kim for bringing my mare back to normal... roll on hunt season! =)"- Kim Rhind, Northland, 2011
“My pony had a flat sarcoid form on her eyelid that continued to travel around the corner of her eye and down underneath the eye. A lump the size of a 20 cent piece then formed under the eye. To all appearances it was going to create major problems. Standard veterinary advice was that we could operate to remove the lump, but if tentacles had spread into the eye cavity the problem would remain, and the prognosis would be serious. It was felt the flat sarcoid and lump were related and with it being so close to the eye any treatment was going to be dangerous
and not necessarily successful. The veterinary prognosis was not bright.
Kim visited three times - approximately a week apart, and worked her magic. After the third treatment the lump reduced and continued to do so until it was completely gone - as well as the flat sarcoid. The pony remains in perfect health. As you can imagine I was extremely relieved and impressed with the result.
Kim also attends to our ponies teeth and does so in a professional, quiet manner which sees the ponies being very settled throughout the procedure. Her relaxed approach makes it a nonevent, with the improvement in their mouths immediately noticeable.
I would recommend her services as they are of the highest standard, very user friendly and the results speak for
themselves.” - Karen Rigby, Waikato, 2008
“Kim looks after our eight horses with their individual health matters as well as their teeth. We are very pleased to say we have very happy horses and that we recommend Kim’s work to all her prospective clients.
In particular one of our very nervous dressage horses is now much calmer and has actually won his first competition. One of our race horses wouldn’t go into the barrier and got disqualified. After Kim’s healing he is now a very well balanced horse and does everything required of him on race day. We are just waiting for him to have a win. We love Kim’s visits as she is great at helping people as well as their horses.” - Megan & Patricia Busch, Whangarei, 2008
