No two horses experience seasonal change in exactly the same way.
Age, breed, workload, metabolism, dental health, previous medical history and individual condition can all influence what a horse needs.
That's why observation plays such an important part in our approach at Caplor.

We regularly look at body condition, appetite, behaviour, movement and the way individual horses are interacting within their herd. Often it is the small changes that tell us the most.
An older horse beginning to lose a little condition doesn't necessarily need an entirely different management regime. They might simply need some additional nutritional support.
Another horse may head into autumn looking extremely well and require very little intervention at all!
The aim isn't to manage every horse identically.
It's to give each horse what they need.
