Healthy older horses with no age-related issues can be fed just the same as their younger counterparts, as long as their diet is balanced for their needs and they maintain an ideal body condition. However, once you start to notice failing dentition, joint disease or any age-related conditions such as PPID, your horse’s diet should be adapted to maintain his wellbeing, body condition and to prolong his quality of life. Luckily, with so many different feeds on the market there’s an appropriate diet for every senior horse, no matter their individual needs.
