Digestive Health
An article by Hilary Moore on digestive health of spot horses. Digestive health of horses are linked to the followings:
- Dressage horses prone to have ulcers (over 50%)
- Feeding routine (empty stomach during work, horse shows and daily stabling) leads to ulcers
- Feeding Bute can lead to ulcers.
- Stress in competition horses can lead to ulcers
To deal with the above:- For joint support and inflammation, uses Ani-Motion instead of Bute
- Be pro-active, uses PrePro when horses are wormed, sick, and getting medications.
- Feed Higher fat/ protein to starch ratio at every meal (see HHC Quick Tip on starch)
