Purina Equine Feeds

Agribrands Purina Canada Inc. manufactures high quality complete feeds and equine products for all stages of your horse's life and activity level.

To optimize the diet

Purina recommends analyzing your hay and balancing the ration accordingly.
Feed clean and dust free hay in sufficient amount daily. Feeding poor quality hay or feeding inadequate amounts could cause colic and other digestive upsets.
Offer source of salt (NaCl) daily as well as plenty of fresh and clean water at all times.
Make any feed change gradually over a 7 to 10 days period.
Daily ration should be divided into 2 and preferably 3 separate feedings or more.

Use a scale to weigh your feed so you know exactly how much your horse is being fed. Do not feed by volume.
Purina recommends providing a maximum of 0.5% of body weight of this feed at one time.
These recommendations are intended as a guide. They should be adjusted to variables of management, environment and individual needs. Consult your Purina Equine Consultant if necessary.
Follow sound management practices along with optimal preventive veterinary medicine.
