Does your horse need to lose weight? Next week (27 February), Spillers will be hosting a free public webinar to give horse owners advice and tips to help their equines reach and maintain a healthy condition.
Taking place at 8pm, the one-hour session will be presented by Isabel Harker who is a nutrition advisor for the brand. She will be sharing practical guidance for shedding those extra pounds and maintaining optimal health.
“We will be referring to some of our latest knowledge and research on weight management and equine nutrition to bring you practical, actionable tips,” said Isabel. “We want to help you to provide a healthier, happier spring season for your equine companion and a less stressful time for you too!”
