Ensuring your horse gets everything he needs to keep his body functioning is vitally important. Many general well-being supplements are designed to ensure that he receives the necessary vitamins, minerals and other nutrients that are required to keep each of his body systems functioning efficiently. These supplements are useful to feed all year round, but particularly so in the spring as nutrients may be in short supply over the winter – now is the perfect time to get back on track.
If you compete with your horse then it is important you make sure any supplements you use do not contain any prohibited substances.
