When your horse sweats it loses water and the vital body salts (electrolytes) sodium, potassium, chloride, magnesium and calcium. Prolonged sweating during training, transport and warm weather can result in significant losses of electrolytes leading to poor performance, fatigue, muscle problems and dehydration. Feeding electrolytes daily will help maintain optimal fluid and electrolyte balance during training and your horse will be well prepared for competition. It is important to feed electrolytes daily during training and not only on competition days otherwise your horse will build up an electrolyte deficit which cannot be compensated for in the days before a competition. Pavo E-lyte contains essential electrolytes for horses in training & competition. Tasty pelleted form for ease of feeding, perfect for fussy eaters.

Oats has been used for 2,000 years as raw material in horse feed. The Romans carried oats to their war horses for extra energy during heavy campaigns. The beauty of oats is that it is well digestible starch present for horses, in contrast to the other starches in cereal grains such as wheat, barley and maize. Oats can be ‘untreated’ fed directly from the land.
Horses really need their fibre- in the wild they spend up to 16 hours a day munching on it. If your horse is in the barn, it doesn’t have the ability to forage, which can lead to unwanted behaviours. Is your horse bored? Does it spend 8 hours or more in the stable? These treats provide a nice distraction!
