Equine Nutrition

Sometimes we struggle with our horses – they may not look as good as we think they should, or maybe they lack energy.  Maybe they are thin. Maybe they are a little heavier than we would like, or have metabolic challenges.  We add supplements – maybe because the package says they will help, maybe someone else says it helped their horse.  Sometimes we end up spending a lot of money on things that are really “stabs in the dark” and we have no idea whether they work or not.

​

Many of these issues can be helped with a good, science-based nutrition program! 

​

​Individual programs include:

​

  • A complete evaluation of your horse's current diet and environment

  • An evaluation of your horse's current body condition

  • Goals for improvement (if any)

  • Recommendations for a complete, balanced diet to meet goals

  • Supplement evaluation and recommendation

  • A comprehensive report 

  • On-going support to assure that goals are met

​

The investment you make creating a solid nutrition program for your horse can SAVE YOU MONEY that you otherwise spend on supplements that do nothing!  

​

​Larger Barn Programs include:

​

  • Comprehensive Nutrition Management Training for you and your team - learn to make informed, data-driven feeding decisions to improve performance, manage weight or support special needs

  • Customized plans that work for your facility and your horses

  • Cost savings through smart nutrition

  • A Comprehensive Guide for your facility

  • On-going support as needed

My programs assure that your horse’s nutritional needs are met and that he has the tools he needs to thrive.  If you have a tricky issue, we have the option of bringing a PhD in to assess the program.  With this program we can SAVE YOU WORRY about whether you are providing the right things for your equine partner.

 

YOUR HORSE IS WORTH IT!

My interest in equine nutrition Started like this:

​

FRIEND: So-and-so’s horses look amazing – she feeds them Brand XX feed.

We should feed brand XX feed too!

​

ME: What makes brand XX feed better than all the rest?

​

FRIEND: ?????

​

That made me want to know, so I collected bag tags…. Everywhere I went, every brand I could find. I made a giant spreadsheet.  And… I had a lot of information and no clue what to do with it. So I studied and learned and discovered on my own.  Then, I dug really deeply into equine nutrition and found a really great program to learn and grow, and now I am an Independent Equine Nutrition Advisor with Legacy Equine Nutrition. We are a small group of highly educated people backed by an extraordinary PhD Equine Nutritionist. It’s been a really wonderful path and I want to share all I’ve learned with the world!
