Our Feed Program
Was developed because we could not find anything on the market that met the needs of our top endurance horses. So, we searched to find feed components that would meet our desired requirements:
- low to no sugar
- high fat
- correct omega 3 to omega 6 ratio to support anti-inflammatory properties
- high in proteins meant for muscle development
- high digestive fibre
- contains digestive supporting enzymes
- customizable to meet individual horses needs
- meet mineral and vitamin requirements
- palatable
The program developed has been tested in horses just entering endurance training to those competing at the highest level of endurance racing in North America (TEVIS Cup). It has also been tested on young growing horses, and a breeding stallion. Testing in brood mares and lactating mares is set to start this spring.
What We Offer
A completely customizable program for our clients’ equine athletes. We work closely with our clients to determine what each of their horses need to succeed based on:
- their current weight (overweight, under weight, good weight)
- amount of exercise and intensity of that exercise
- age
- weight/muscle development
- forage available
- what the owner plans on doing with their equine athlete
- overall body condition
- the nutritional analysis of their current diet
Using this information our Manager of Feed Production and Sales will match a client’s current feed programs calorie count with our program, and through utilizing our experience and NRH (Nutritional Requirements of Horses) guidelines, create a custom feed to meet their horses caloric and nutritional needs. Horses’ needs are always changing due to many factors (ex: Workload change, pregnancy, lactation, season etc.). With this we encourage clients to communicate these changes with us, as well as any changes they are seeing with their horse, and we will help guide them in any feed changes that may be needed.
