We share our expertise on a range of horse care and management issues. Our articles are particularly focused on nutrition, but this naturally links with other topics which we will cover too. We’ll also share relevant news about Pure Feed here.
As horses get older they may not hold their weight as well, particularly through the winter months. This can be further complicated by difficulty chewing due to missing or worn teeth. If your horse is starting to struggle when eating chaff based feeds consider a soaked feed such as our Pure Veteran Pellets.
Providing correct nutrition is important for all stages of breeding. Find out how feeding your broodmare Pure Stud can help meet the nutritional requirements of your mare during gestation and after the foal is born.
For many of us, when we see our beloved veteran horses start to struggle with chewing hay it can give cause for concern. Hay replacers are an ideal way to provide your horse with an easy to chew source of fibre when they can no longer chew hay.
Some horses naturally have more energy than others. However, for those with an excitable temperament, finding a feed that provides the right amount of energy without making them too sharp can be a challenge. Find out how Pure Easy has helped our customer’s horses and could benefit yours too.
What do you feed your horse if they are a ‘good doer’ to ensure that they are getting a balanced diet, without encouraging weight gain?
Keeping weight on a poor doer can be challenging enough in itself, but what about if they are fussy too? Pure Condition Pellets can help. They use oil to provide calm calories; helping to maintain condition and are palatable too.
For some competition horses a more instant source of energy is required for them to be able to perform at their peak. For this we have our Pure Performance feed, providing optimum power and energy. Pure Feed customer and dressage rider Izzy Chaplin explains how Pure Performance suits her horse Vinnie.
Pure Easy is high in fibre, low in both sugar and starch and is a complete feed, scoop straight from the bag and into the bucket. Low in calories, it is perfect for good doers and those horses that don’t need extra energy when they are being ridden.
The Pure Feed family has many customers competing across all the disciplines, from driving and endurance to eventing and dressage. This month we thought we’d share some of our customer success stories in the showing world.
Owning a good doer can be both a blessing and a curse. On the one hand it is relatively low cost to feed your horse, and they will not suffer from poor condition. But on the other, they may be excitable or prone to carrying extra weight.
