Review the practical details of feeding an older horse as weather, forage, and routines change.

Write down how your senior horse manages the usual feed and forage, including anything left behind.

Start with a clear picture of your horse’s usual routine. A short, dated record of feeding, turnout, exercise, and appointments makes it easier to share useful observations with the people involved in your horse’s care.

Every horse has an individual history. Use your notes to prepare questions for your veterinarian or another qualified equine professional, and keep their recommendations with your horse’s care records.
