Dodson & Horrell range of equine feeds offer complete nutritional solutions for high performance and competition horses, racing, showing, breeding and leisure riding.
They also cater for horses with additional needs, such as veterans, and those in need of everyday support such as higher fibre or weight management.
Performance:- The nutritionists – in partnership with leading researchers – looked at recent advances in all areas of sports nutrition, not just equine. Investigating how preventative performance and recovery capacities can be improved through nutrition. Based on the findings we developed a range of performance feeds which contain the best possible combinations of functional ingredients to fuel your horse. Maximising performance and recovery, supporting muscular, hoof, coat, immune and joint health.
Breeding:- The breeding range looks after the specific needs of horses at stud, starting from conception right through to the sales ring. The range recognises the different needs of different breeds throughout the year and provides the right level of nutritional support. The updates reflect the evidence based approach to formulation and have taken on board current research and client feedback.
Leisure:- With almost 80 years’ commitment to providing the best equine nutrition, the newly improved leisure feeds provide a nutritional advantage.
Specialist Nutritional Support:- Almost every horse or pony will go through a time when they need extra nutritional support. Whether that is temporary, such as a period of box rest, or more prolonged, such as being prone to laminitis, high-quality nutrition is essential. Dodson & Horrell’s specialist range equine nutrition feeds have been developed with and recommended by veterinary surgeons, and contain patented technology to help your horse feel their best.
Veteran:- Just like us, our horses are living for longer and nutrition plays a major role in keeping your horse or pony fit and healthy as they grow older.
Age often brings with it a reduced ability to maintain condition and muscle mass, so providing the right amount of calories and plenty of high quality, digestible protein is essential. Optimal nutrition is also key to the support of vital organs, joints and the immune system. Our range of veteran feeds & veteran mixes for horses have been specifically formulated with older working horses and ponies in mind to ensure they are supported throughout the years.
Fibre:- The majority of your horse’s diet is made up of leafy plant material or ‘forage’ – grass, hay, haylage and chaff. Adding extra fibrous forage to your horse’s feed not only provides essential fibre, but also promotes chewing and increases eating time. High fibre horse feed can even help your horse digest their hard feed when fed at the same time.
Weight Gain:- Getting your horse’s weight just right can be tricky; some horses are genetically predisposed to weight gain while others lose weight too easily. Finding the right horse weight loss or horse weight gain feed can be difficult.
Whether your horse is watching their waistline or needs to bulk up, it is crucial that they continue to receive optimal nutritional support. Getting the right intake of micronutrients will keep your horse healthy, while using the best possible ingredients will maximise the effectiveness of any weight management diet (either feed for horse weight loss or horse weight gain).
Balancers:- Dodson & Horrell’s Balancer range provides a selection of products, with different support supplements in each to suit a variety of equine’s nutritional needs. Whether your horse needs a low calorie feed, or a vitamin and mineral top-up then D&H has a balancer for them.
