OWNERS ADVISED TO RESTRICT GRAZING AS GRASS GROWTH SHOWS NO SIGN OF SLOWING



Owners have been reminded to limit their equines’ grazing this summer, as the
wet, warm weather is proving ideal conditions for lush grass to grow. Many
ponies, who would normally be living on sparse pastures, are in real danger of
developing conditions such as laminitis if they allowed access to too much of
this grass.

Bransby Horses’ welfare team has offered advice to owners who have reached out
for help and want to remind everyone they are there to assist if they are
struggling to manage.



“We have seen so many ponies on lush grazing at a time when the hot weather
would normally have burnt off some of the grass,” said Welfare campaigns officer
Rachel Dixon. “There are ways to manage this, with track systems and different
turnout techniques, which we are more than happy to advise on if people are not
sure where to start.”

Click here to read our advice on limiting grazing, how to implement a track
grazing system, or how to use a grazing muzzle. We also share expert advice into
helping prevent your horse or pony from getting laminitis.

Anyone can contact the Bransby Horses Welfare line on 01427 787369 for advice,
or if they are concerned about an horse or pony in need. Bransby also hosts
information events for horse owners and carers, where experts share their
insight. To find out what’s on and how you can attend, click here.
