At Bed-Down, we produce horse bedding to suit individual horses’ health conditions and behavioural characteristics.
Choosing the right bedding for your horse can make a big difference to their comfort, health and overall wellbeing. We help you match your horse to the most suitable horse bedding.
For horses on a restrictive diet, bedding that’s unpalatable is vital to prevent unnecessary nibbling. Options such as Rapasorb, Lavender Shavings or Pure Shavings are excellent choices, giving you peace of mind that your horse is safe while stabled. Similarly, for horses that tend to eat their bedding, these three remain the most suitable solutions.
Respiratory health is another important factor. Horses prone to COPD or asthma need horse bedding that actively supports cleaner, dust-free air. Excel Plus, with its Microcote™ additive, is a strong choice, as are our calming Lavender Shavings, which are naturally soothing while being kind to sensitive lungs.
For older or arthritic horses, comfort underfoot is key. Excel and Excel Plus both provide a supportive, cushioned bed to help ease joint strain. High-performance horses, who spend more time stabled and need optimum respiratory protection, often benefit most from Excel Plus.
Some horses are simply messy, or young and still learning stable habits. In these cases, Rapasorb is ideal, thanks to its high absorbency and durability, keeping the stable drier and fresher for longer. For foaling mares, both Rapasorb and Traditional horse bedding provide the reliable, clean environment needed at such an important time.
Certain conditions call for targeted support. Horses with dry or cracked hooves can benefit from Excel Plus or Lavender Shavings, both of which help maintain healthier hooves. For those prone to thrush or white line disease, Excel Plus stands out as the preferred option. And if your horse seems allergic to almost everything, Pure Shavings offer a safe and dependable alternative.
For anxious horses or those prone to weaving, Lavender Shavings give off a naturally calming aroma, helping create a more relaxed and stress-free stable environment.
Whatever your horse’s needs, there’s a Bed-Down horse bedding designed to keep them healthier, happier and more comfortable.
