Dodson & Horrell Safe & Sound — Balanced, Low-Starch Condition Feed for Horses & Ponies

🐴 Low-Starch • High-Fibre • Condition, Weight & Gut-Safe Feed

Dodson & Horrell Safe & Sound is a specially formulated horse feed designed to support condition, gut health, and stable energy — while remaining low in starch and sugar. It’s ideal for good-doers, easy-keepers, metabolic-sensitive horses, or any equine needing a calm, balanced feed without heavy concentrate loads.


✅ Key Benefits

  • Low in starch & sugar — reduces risk of digestive upsets, metabolic stress or excitability; suitable for sensitive or “easy-keeper” horses.

  • Supports condition and topline — helps maintain weight and body condition without excess calories.

  • High fibre and digestible fibre base — supports healthy digestion and stable gut function, especially when combined with good quality forage.

  • Suitable for a wide range of horses & ponies — from leisure, retired or easy-keep ponies to good-doers needing condition, or horses on restricted grazing/forage.

  • Versatile feed option — can be used as a main feed (with adequate forage) or as part of a balanced ration for more demanding horses.

🪣 Feeding & Usage Guide

  • Ideal for horses/ponies needing calm energy, condition maintenance or careful ration management — good-doers, retirees, easy-keepers, metabolic-sensitive animals.

  • Feed alongside high-quality forage or hay; ensure constant access to fresh, clean water.

  • Introduce over a transition period when switching feeds to avoid digestive upset.

  • Adjust feed quantity based on bodyweight, condition, workload and turnout.

  • For maintenance or leisure horses: feed at recommended conservative rate; monitor condition and adjust accordingly.

  • For horses requiring more energy/condition: combine with appropriate forage, adjust ration sensibly.

  • Store in a cool, dry place, keep bag sealed to maintain quality and nutrient balance.


🏷️ Ideal For

  • Good-doers and easy-keepers needing controlled feeding

  • Leisure, retired or light-work horses needing stable nutrition without overfeeding

  • Ponies or horses with metabolic sensitivity or dietary restrictions
