Studying the Science of Raw

March 3, 2022 By FBN

Raw is the pinnacle of pet nutrition. The ideal diet for an individual dog or cat is the one that produces the best long-term results. A pet’s diet should be balanced in calories, protein and other nutrients to maintain an optimum condition, rather than conform to some standard that doesn’t apply to his or her lifestyle. Research at the University of Helsinki is bringing new relevance to raw feeding research. The DogRisk study was initiated by Dr. Anna Hielm-Bjorkman with the School of … [Read more...] about Studying the Science of Raw

Is Cheaper Feed Really Cheaper to Feed?

January 1, 2022 By FBN

There are several factors that go into what you choose to feed your horses. With commodity prices on the rise, price per bag is probably high on the list – but when you break it down, the cheapest bag you can buy might not actually be the cheapest way to ensure your horse gets the nutrients he needs.

This means all the ingredients in a bag … [Read more...] about Is Cheaper Feed Really Cheaper to Feed?

Horses, ‘Hot’ Feeds, Misconceptions

November 6, 2021 By FBN

Over the years, I have worked for several horse trainers. Each barn had its own program in regard to training, routines and, of course, feed. Some trainers had their horses on schedules of feeding that entailed only forage (grass hay, alfalfa or a mixture of both) in the mornings and evenings, with “lunch” being supplement time: grain and various other supplements. Others fed forage and supplements simultaneously, morning and evening. Some fed only forage, with no supplements at all, with the … [Read more...] about Horses, ‘Hot’ Feeds, Misconceptions

Animal Enrichment: Rethinking Pet Toys

September 1, 2021 By FBN

When you think of a dog toy, what comes to mind? Is it a tennis ball, a squeaky toy shaped like some other animal, or a simple rope? There is no doubt that pet retailers have plenty of options. In my experience, it doesn’t take much to entertain my dog – a football with a squeaker in the middle is just fine for her to play fetch with. The problem is, as we know, fetch requires a person to throw the ball. Since I work in an office, on days that I bring my energetic young dog with me to work, I … [Read more...] about Animal Enrichment: Rethinking Pet Toys

Does Your Horse Have a Drinking Problem?

March 7, 2021 By FBN

Are you one of the many horse owners who worries about your horse lacking hydration during the winter months? Keeping your horse hydrated is crucial, especially during the cold spells that can make drinking uncomfortable and unappealing to your equine pals. Not drinking enough can lead to serious issues like dehydration and impaction – a blockage in your horse’s intestine, caused usually by masses of feed or sand/dirt. In short, not having enough water reduces the moisture in your horse’s gut … [Read more...] about Does Your Horse Have a Drinking Problem?
