Pure Feed Co Healthy Horse Treats – 2kg

Pure Treats – Healthy Horse Treats, 2kg

Pure Treats are made from the same sort of ingredients as the feeds: oatfeed, grass pellets, wheatfeed, mixed herbs and salt, with no added sugar and no molasses. It is a short, plain ingredient list rather than a confection, and that is the point — most horse treats are held together with sugar, and this one is not.

The analysis backs it up. Digestible energy is 7 MJ/kg, starch 7% and naturally occurring sugar 3%, and Pure list them as suitable for horses with laminitis, insulin resistance or other metabolic conditions. Fed by the handful they make a negligible difference to a restricted diet, which is exactly what makes them usable where most treats are not.

Performance & Benefits

• Short ingredient list: oatfeed, grass pellets, wheatfeed, mixed herbs and salt.
• No added sugar and no molasses.
• 7 MJ/kg digestible energy, with starch 7% and naturally occurring sugar 3%.
• Free from wholegrain cereals, soya, alfalfa and nutritionally improved straw.
• Palatable enough for catching, loading and rewarding without a sugar hit.
• 2kg bag, which lasts most horses a long time at sensible rates.

Suitable For

• Any horse or pony being rewarded, caught or loaded.
• Horses with laminitis, insulin resistance or other metabolic conditions, on Pure's guidance.
• Horses on restricted or calorie-controlled diets.
• Handling, groundwork and clicker training, where many small rewards are needed.
• Not a feed — a horse needing nutrition rather than a reward should be on one of the Pure complete feeds, such as Pure Easy.

Feeding

• Feed by hand or in the bucket, a few at a time.
• Pure suggest up to a handful a day, depending on the horse's size and dietary needs.
• Count them into a restricted diet rather than feeding them on top of it.
• Feed alongside a normal balanced ration and forage; treats replace neither.
