Did you know that some horse owners believe that horses should not be allowed to graze? Weird, right? Why would you not want a horse who eats grass for a living not to eat grass? This belief may be the result of new horse owners who have overprotective tendencies due to their unfamiliarity with horses. The truth is that a horse’s body is designed to graze. By grazing, a horse’s lower jaw slides forward to ensure the grass is properly grinded, which in turn produces the amount of salivation needed to aid the process of digestion. Eating from a raised feeder can cause choking or digestive problems. This may not be the case for all horses, so it’s best to talk to your vet before choosing to graze or not to graze your horse. You should also talk to your vet clinic Wichita, KS about the type of feeder you use.
