This is the savory version of the treat from the same line: the package contains 10 pieces of 35 g each, and each cookie is handmade. The recipe is based on oats, dried pumpkin, and pumpkin seeds, all bound together with beet syrup; you will also find an ingredient listed as postbiotic 5 g, which the manufacturer explains as inactivated Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast. It's worth clarifying the name right away, as it can be misleading: the term \"savory\" here describes the flavor profile (pumpkin, grainy, less fruity), not the addition of salt, which is simply not present in the list. The manufacturer states that postbiotics are a valuable addition to horse nutrition, especially when supporting the proper functioning of the digestive system is important, and that the cookies promote gut microflora. The recommendation is clear: a maximum of 2 cookies per day, as a reward or incentive, and not as part of the feed ration or a substitute for bulk feed.<\/p>\n
List of ingredients in the order provided by the manufacturer:<\/p>\n
First of all, salt: the manufacturer's list includes oats, dried pumpkin, pumpkin seeds, beet syrup, and postbiotics, and \"salty\" in this name refers to the flavor profile, not the composition. The manufacturer classifies the cookies as a complementary treat, so if you need something to replenish electrolytes after intense work, this product does not fulfill that role. Secondly, postbiotics: the number 5 g appears within the ingredient list, without indicating whether it refers to one cookie or the entire package. Thirdly, the texture: pumpkin seeds contribute to a distinctly grainy, crunchy bite, and with a picky horse, it is usually the texture that determines whether the treat will be accepted or spat out onto the bedding.<\/p>\n
The manufacturer provides one sentence with a recommendation, which contains two separate pieces of information:<\/p>\n
This version is for horses that do not favor sweet treats, and for those looking for a snack with a different profile than fruity. Pumpkin and pumpkin seeds provide a savory flavor and a distinctly grainy texture, making it a suitable choice for a horse that eats fruity cookies without enthusiasm. However, it is important not to confuse the name with its function: there is no salt in the composition, so this is not a substitute for a salt lick or an electrolyte preparation, and the manufacturer does not assign such a role to the product. Thirty-five grams is a bite for one serving, and the daily maximum sets two distinct reward moments - a rhythm comfortable for daily ground work. Beet syrup enhances palatability, so despite the savory profile, the treat is not sugar-neutral; for a horse on a controlled diet or after experiencing metabolic issues, it is advisable to discuss the decision to serve it with a veterinarian who knows its weight and dietary history.<\/p>\n
No. The ingredient list provided by the manufacturer includes oats, dried pumpkin, pumpkin seeds, beet syrup, and postbiotics - there is no salt in it. The term \"salty\" in the name describes the savory flavor profile and distinguishes this recipe from fruity ones, but does not imply the addition of salt or an electrolyte function.<\/p>\n
The manufacturer recommends a maximum of 2 cookies per day and considers this the limit. The treat is complementary, so it does not replace bulk feed or part of the dietary ration. If the horse is on a controlled diet or taking medication, discuss this portion with a veterinarian before the first serving.<\/p>\n
The manufacturer describes it as inactivated yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and lists it at the end of the ingredient list with the number 5 g. Therefore, postbiotics are part of the cookie's recipe itself, not an additive added separately at serving. The value is recorded without a reference point - if it is to influence your choice, check it on the packaging before serving.<\/p>\n
By the recipe. This one is based on dried pumpkin and pumpkin seeds and provides a savory flavor; the fruity version is built around fruit, and its full list is on its own page. The oat base, beet syrup, and the presence of postbiotics are common, and the package size and daily maximum are the same for both. So you mainly choose based on the flavor profile.<\/p>\n
The fruity equivalent of this recipe is sweet cookies for horses, and in a larger bite, there are bars for horses. All three items are gathered in the category For animals<\/a>.<\/p>\n More context on the blog: how to read the composition of the intestinal preparation<\/a> and a guide to oils for animals<\/a>.<\/p>\n Do not exceed the daily maximum set by the manufacturer, which is 2 cookies. Store the package at a temperature between 15 and 25 \u00b0C, in a dry and dark place, out of reach of animals and children - a horse that manages to get into the package will consume multiple times the recommended portion. Seal the package after each use, as moisture destroys the cookie's structure the fastest and most visibly. For a sick horse, on a controlled diet, or taking medication, make the decision to serve the treat after consulting with a veterinarian.<\/p>\n The product is intended solely for animals and does not replace a complete daily ration or veterinary care.<\/p>\n Do you have a question about the ingredients, flavor profile, or the difference between recipes in this line?
