Dr. Getty’s Horse Treat Tips
Nutritionist Dr. Juliet Getty has made a list of treats that are generally safe to feed to horses and some that are never good to feed to them. In the generally safe to feed group are apples, bananas (including the peel), berries, coconut, grapes, lettuce, lemons, melons, oranges, peaches, pineapple, sweet potatoes and watermelon (including the rind). In the never to feed group are chocolate, milk and milk products, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, tomatoes, peppers, raw potatoes, onions, gar- lic, spinach and avocado. In certain circum- stances, however, some of the generally safe
to feed group should not be fed to horses with insulin resistance, Cushings, or risk of lami- nitis. In these cases, you should avoid feeding apples, bread, candy, carrots, cooked pota- toes, and commercial treats made with cereal grains. A better choice would be alfalfa cubes, apple peels, watermelon rinds, and commercial products that are low in starch and sugar.
