With bonfire night around the corner, feeding CalmaPRO+ contributes to helping manage the horse’s stress from firework displays or any other sudden changes in the environment. The formula contains two sources of Magnesium to support overall relaxation as well as L-Tryptophan to increase Serotonin production and promote calm, helping them to stay settled with the noises and lights of fireworks.
PharmaTRAC Total Digestive Support can be fed as part of a year-round daily maintenance program or when extra support is required, such as during stressful events like fireworks which can impact a horse’s digestive comfort. PharmaTRAC is a proven supplement for total digestive tract support by targeting both the foregut and the hindgut of the horse. It contains a Prebiotic to promote healthy bacteria and pH levels supporting an optimal gastric environment.
You can increase the feeding rate of CalmaPRO – doubling the daily recommended serving for stressful situations like fireworks
To build up the horse’s levels of effective ingredients from CalmaPRO+, it can be fed for a week at maintenance feeding rate before increasing on the day of additional stress. It can be fed long term.
During times of stress it is important to consider the horse’s digestive system, and owners could use PharmaTRAC Total Digestive Support in addition to CalmaPRO+ to provide additional support during these stressful few weeks.
In addition, horse owners can rest assured that they can continue to feed CalmaPRO+ during competitions to manage this stress too as it is completely competition legal with no withdrawal period – all BETTALIFE products support Clean Sport
Top Tips for a Stress-Free Firework Night
Keep an eye out for organised local displays – check local groups on Facebook, local schools, shop notice boards, community groups & local radio
Aim to keep your horse in a routine they are used to. While some horses are happier experiencing fireworks out in the field, others feel safer in the stable – do what suits your horse and don’t suddenly change their routine
Check your horse’s stable/field is safe and secure – look out for things they could get caught on, run into or injure themselves on, and check stable door fixtures / gates & fencing
If stabled, leave lights and radio on to disguise the bangs and flashes
If you know your horse isn’t good with fireworks consider talking to your vet about sedation
Leave emergency contact numbers for yourself and your vet easily accessible in case something happens and you aren’t there
Remain calm yourself – your horse will pick up on your stress! Don’t put yourself in a dangerous situation where you could get injured by a startled horse
