Happy, Healthy Horses
A Holistic approach to horse health encompasses the following :
Nutrition and diet:
A simple low-sugar diet, with appropriate minerals & salt, plus 24/7 access to grass or hay.
Movement:
Horses are designed to move. Access to large areas, track systems, and herd dynamics all encourage movement.
Environment:
Horses are herd animals. They enjoy access to:
- friends
- shade
- wet and dry areas
- points of interest
- a supply of horse-friendly grass
Appropriate trimming style & cycle:
A barefoot trim emulates how the horse would naturally wear in a varied environment with lots of movement. Low heels, short toes, and shaped to mimic a hoof in a natural environment.
Which all contribute to happy, healthy horses.
