When Purina equine companions reach their "senior years" it doesn’t necessarily mean they are ready to slow down.

Feeding Directions
Feeding directions with hay or pasture. Start with the amounts given for the weight and lifestyle of the horse. After observing the horse for a period of time, the amount fed may be increased or decreased to obtain the desired body condition and weight.
* This is the recommended minimum amount of hay to be fed. If feeding more hay, reduce the feeding rate of equine senior active horse feed by 1 lb for every additional 2 lb of hay fed.
** Do not feed less than 0.3 lb per 100 lb of body weight per day.
For horses sensitive to dietary carbohydrates, please consult with a veterinarian or nutritionist for a recommended diet.
Best Results
- If your horse gains too much weight at that minimum feeding rate, then you should replace equine senior active horse feed with enrich plus ration balancing feed
- If your horse is having trouble chewing or digesting hay, then you should replace equine senior active horse feed with equine senior horse feed for the special needs of older horses that can no longer chew and digest hay or pasture
- Feeding rates will vary with size, age, temperament, health status, forage quality, climate, and activity level. Feed at regular times - at least twice daily - with three daily feedings preferred. Let horses feed in a natural position from troughs with large bottoms, placed at normal head height or lower. Do not feed free choice. Prevent the rapid eating by the horse of any feedstuff
- Reduce and/or delay feeding a horse that is hot, excited, or showing pain, has a fever or diarrhea. Consult your veterinarian if any problems arise
- Always feed a minimum of 1.0 to 1.2 lb per 100 lb of body weight of good quality, clean hay or the equivalent in pasture
- Any feed changes should be made gradually over a period of 7 to 10 days. Changes in the rate of feeding should not exceed 1.0 lb per day for each horse
- Have plenty of clean, fresh water available at all times. Provide your horse with access to salt. Maintain an effective control program for internal parasites. Have the horse's teeth examined annually and consult your veterinarian on a regular basis
Changing To
- Make the feed change gradually over a period of 7 to 10 days
- Mix the new feed with the old, gradually increasing the amount of the new feed while decreasing an equal amount of the old
- Changes in the rate of feeding should not exceed 1 lb per day for each horse
Caution
Store in a dry, well-ventilated area protected from rodents and insects. Do not feed moldy or insect-infested feed to animals as it may cause illness, performance loss or death.
