FAQ

What does HoofKind approved mean?

Is Hoofkind suitable for horses with EMS or PPID (Cushing’s)?

Hoofkind is low in starch and sugar, which is important for horses with EMS or PPID. However, always consult your vet for specific dietary management of these conditions.

Can I feed Hoofkind to a healthy horse?

Yes — Hoofkind is suitable for all horses and ponies, not just laminitics. It is an excellent choice for good-doers, those in light work, or any horse that benefits from a low-starch diet.
