During the summer months many horses and ponies are kept out at grass, and although the majority of horses will thrive on summer grazing it can cause obesity in those prone to weight gain.  Therefore, restricting access to grass may need to be considered which can be achieved through strip grazing and periods of turnout in a grazing muzzle. If you have a good doer that lives on fresh air it can be tempting to remove any additional feed from the diet, but unlike horses in the wild who would graze on a variety of grass species many horses today are kept on restricted grazing, frequently lacking in essential nutrients. It is therefore important to supplement the forage given with additional vitamins and minerals to ensure a balanced diet is achieved.
