Purina Mills Equine Senior®
Purina Mills Equine Senior® horse feed is formulated to provide owners with a complete feed that furnishes optimum nutrition for the older horse's less efficient metabolic systems for a long and contented life. The feed, which was developed at Purina Mills Equine Research Unit, is made up of pre-processed alfalfa and grain products that are high in nutrients and more easily digested by older horses than whole grain feeds, loose hay or pasture.
 
Feed Form: Complete Pellet
 
Recommended For:
Older Horses, especially those that may be losing weight due to poor nutrient absorption, dental problems or no teeth at all.
