Today’s reweigh has seen a formally obese mare lose the total weight of 1 Sloth Bear 🐻 … not bad for a 14.2hh! 😁 🐴
It’s not been a quick process and neither should it be. She has now achieved a healthy optimal body condition, with her owner reporting that “she is just so much happier” ❤️

This week at Equinutrition it has all been about supporting change…
Eventer’s that seam to struggle with any sort of change, horses with work load changes that mean their previously suitable diet is falling short, change of yard or owners, medical diagnoses that call for diet and management changes, season change consult bookings (so many bookings), foals preparing for weaning, and owners in the Good Doer project reflecting on a change in their priorities for their horses well-being.
Did you know it can take a horse’s digestive system weeks to adapt to change? If your horse is experiencing changes and you aren’t sure how best to nutritionally support them, please feel free to reach out.

Delighted when ever a horse achieves a The Horse Trust's Healthiest Body Condition Awards. But even more so when it’s one you’ve been working with to improve their condition. 🏆

Halfway point interviews finally transcribed… this has felt a bit like a mountain 🏔️ to climb 🧗‍♂️… now just to type up all the end point interviews. Again I’d like to thank all my owners in The Good Doer Project, I’m really hopeful that your honest discussions will provide support for future horse owners ❤️

Calling all clients 🚨 So the last 48hrs has seen a rush of bookings for end of summer/start of winter diet planning consults for September & October. This will be the 1st & last time I’ll be having to do PhD data collection meetings and end of summer/ pre winter sessions at the same time. If you or anyone else on your yard would like to book in your ‘season change’ session, please can I ask that you let me know sooner rather than later. There are only so many hours in Autmun 🍁 🍂 🍃 But till then let the heat wave continue 🥵

Recently I’ve seen that Equinutrition has been recommended in multiple fb posts and group chats, asking for feeding advice. I’d just like to say thank-you all so much. Often when an owner turns to fb for support it’s because they feel lost in the 💣 field of the vast and the often conflicting advice freely available. The way I hope to work is that if I do a good job an owner will no longer need me. This does mean that your recommendations help connect the owners who are seeking support with my help, and help me to continue to do what I do and love. Again thank you. ❤️

When I first met this handsome beast of a Dales he was very poorly and he prognosis was poor. So to be sent this update of him strutting his stuff & loving life, is about the best. All due to the massive care and devotion from his owner 🐴❤️

Delighted to announce I have received a distinction in my PgCert Research Methods (Animal & Agriculture). 👩🏻‍🎓 As a registered nutritionist, continual training is an essential requirement. This course has confirmed my long held belief that it is as important to question where knowledge has come from & just how reliable or trustworthy that information is. This approach allows me to endeavour to pass on reliable and accurate information to all those horse owners I work with. 🐴❤️
