Dunstan Extruded Barley provides horse owners with a very safe way to feed this versatile grain to their horses for energy for both performance and conditioning.

Barley that has not undergone a form of heat processing has limited digestibility for the horse and therefore increases the risk of digestive upsets associated with fermentation of undigested starch in the hindgut

Dunstan Extruded Barley ensures improved starch digestion allowing better feed utilisation for weight gain and performance.

Dunstan Extruded Barley is a great conditioning feed and can be added into the existing ration to increase calorie density without concerns of further mineral supplementation in an already balanced ration.

Dunstan Extruded Barley, when fed in conjunction with a balanced diet for protein, fibre, minerals and vitamins, provides a highly available energy source for either work output or where an extra condition is required.

The addition of Vegetable Oil further boosts calorie density and enhances skin and coat quality.

Equine Safe

Dunstan Horsefeeds are produced in Equine-Safe manufacturing plants, ensuring a product of premium quality, safety and performance.

Super Fibre Mash 20Kg

Benchmark Superfibre Mash® is a tasty fibre source that has much to offer for all horses and ponies. The benefits of superfibres in soy hulls has been harnessed and digestive support improved with the addition of pre and pro-biotics and Melofeed™, a natural source of antioxidant. Importantly, a special mineral premix has been included to balance iron, copper & zinc ratios to ensure Benchmark Super Fibre Mash® is a safe and balanced addition to any equine diet. Being low in sugars and starch, Benchmark Super Fibre Mash® is safe for the laminitic and EMS horse and pony.

Benchmark Superfibre Mash™ is primarily a fibre source and does not provide a full array of vitamins, minerals or amino acids. 

What’s so great about Super fibres?
Apart from water, fibre is the most important component of a horse’s natural diet. Fibre is digested by fermentation in the horse’s hind gut or caecum, unlocking energy rich volatile fatty acids.

The digestion of fibre sources such as pasture, hay and chaff are about 40-60% efficient, meaning that about 40- 60% of all fibre is either not digested, or only partially digested and ultimately passes as waste in the horse’s manure.

By comparison, super fibres such as the soy hulls in Benchmark Super Fibre Mash® are about 75-80% digestible, meaning that much less is passed as waste and importantly more nutritional benefit is gained from each kg of super fibres fed. Super fibres also stimulate fermentation, helping to protect the delicate microbiota (micro flora) balance in the hind gut.

How to prepare Perfect Mash for your horse?
By volume
To 1-part Perfect Mash add 2-3 parts cold or warm water. Soak for 5-10mins before feeding.

Or by weight
To every 500gs of Perfect Mash add 1 -1.5 litres of cold or warm water. Soak as above.

Perfect Mash should be introduced gradually over 7-14 days to allow your horse’s gut enzymes to adjust to the new feed.

MSM supplement for horses and dogs to help reduce inflammation in muscles and joints.

Supports joint health, cartilage, connective tissue, skin, coat and hoof quality.

MSM provides a natural antioxidant for healthy movement and maintaining health in both horses and dogs.

This MSM supplement for horses and dogs offers an ultra-pure source of bioavailable, organic sulphur. MSM in a highly pure form offers a naturally occurring source of sulphur to support healthy muscles, joints and connective tissues of all horses and dogs.

Why sulphur is important

In nature, soil microorganisms convert sulphur compounds into sulphates which plants absorb to manufacture sulphur essential amino acids such as methionine, cystine and cysteine.

These sulphur bonds are found in connective tissues which provide structure and strength and are essential for healthy hooves, hair, as well as tendons and ligaments.

How dose MSM work in the body and what are the benefits?

MSM benefits the body by lending sulphur to complete numerous (some 300) internal chemical reactions in order to naturally support health where it has been proven to help with inflammatory conditions.

Therefore, is useful to reduce joint inflammation associated with trauma, injury or degeneration (osteoarthritis).

Animals such as dogs and horses where joints have become stiff also benefit from daily supplementation.

What is the dose of pure Methyl Sulphonyl Methane (MSM)?

Daily dose for horses of 500 Kg bodyweight:

6-12 grams for ease of movement or for other minor inflammatory conditions
20 grams may be used for inflammation, but as a short-term measure before the dose is decreased
Daily dose for dogs of 25 Kg bodyweight:

 1 – 3 pinches mixed with food, high dose 6 pinches.
What is the MSM dose for horses with arthritis?

Clinical studies show a higher dose of up to 20 grams (per 500 Kg) administered to horses improved lameness scores and also showed no change in blood chemistry.

However, this later dose would be recommended as a short-term measure only, due to MSM being a nutrient and where no nutrient should be used excessively in the diet.

But at the recommended dose MSM can improve healthy function and support muscle and joint health by helping to also reduce inflammation.

Should I use MSM and Glucosamine together?

MSM and Glucosamine provide further benefits when combined to provide the nutritional blocks for healthy joint cartilage and synovial fluids, together having a synergistic effect for maintaining healthy function and reduce inflammation.

Sedalyte (Electrolyte Replacement for Horses)

Replaces more of what is actually lost in sweat. 

Inadequate electrolyte replacement after sweat loss leads to dehydration, lethargy, reduced water intake and muscle weakness in performance. It is also a major cause of tying up (Equine rhabdomyolysis). 

SedaLYTE is an advanced electrolyte replacer specifically designed to help prevent such performance losses from occurring. It has been formulated after extensive research to determine the actual composition of sweat and this research has led to the higher electrolyte levels found in SedaLYTE (Potassium, Sodium, Magnesium and Chloride). This also means that SedaLYTE contains more of what is actually lost in sweat and less of other compounds not important with regards to sweat loss. 

It is because SedaLYTE's balanced formulation more closely mimics the actual composition of a horse's sweat that it is so effective at helping to prevent poor performance due to sweat loss. 

Individual horses sweat differently under differing work loads and climates. SedaLYTE's formulation and feeding directions are directly related to the amount of sweat lost, taking into account both the amount of work done and the climate. This means that you can ensure you are correctly replacing your horses sweat loss no matter what the climate. The addition of glucose in the SedaLYTE formulation improves the uptake of the essential electrolytes into the gut (stomach) to quickly help prevent dehydration. 

To also help maximise electrolyte uptake, it is advisable to split the daily SedaLYTE dosage into more than one feed (e.g. half the daily dose in the morning and half in the evening). The apple flavouring in SedaLYTE makes it very palatable. 

SedaLYTE contains no bicarbonates and does not contravene the rules of racin
