The philosophy behind the EQUUS range is to combine
the age old, proven principles of natural  feeding
techniques with the latest technological research.

Throughout this range, the emphasis is on natural fibres and gut
health. The guiding principal behind all the formulations is to feed
horses as naturally as possible.  Carefully selected, top grade
fibres naturally preferred by horses, have been blended with all
the other nutrients required to create a practical range of
products for a wide range of applications.

Making our horse feeds as natural as possible is always the
priority and only ingredients of the highest quality are used:
fibres are selected for palatability and effectiveness in ensuring
gut health; proteins are selected based on their specific amino
acid profile; fats included compose a specific Omega-3 profile;
starches are selected for their specific tempo of digestion to
ensure a gradual release of energy; and vitamins and minerals
are included based on their bio-availability and stability in
mixtures.

Each product is nutritionally complete, contains elevated levels
of vitamins, minerals and electrolytes, and is formulated to
fulfill all the nutritional requirements for its specific application.
Normal healthy horses will need nothing else besides good
quality hay or pasture.

It is important to keep in mind that stress due to extensive
traveling, illness and other medical conditions might require the
use of some of the excellent supplements available to assist
recovery. While we utilise only the latest equine technology and
research in our product formulations certain horses, or specific
conditions, may require supplements and rather than
claiming  to incorporate additives for all seasons, we prefer to
encourage owners to obtain professional advice from their
veterinarian/equine pharmacist about the correct supplement
to use.
