Calming Cookies are a high-specification complementary feed for all horses in a convenient cookie format, designed to provide support during periods of travel, competition or other potentially challenging situations, without causing drowsiness or affecting normal activity.
Each cookie contains a carefully selected blend of amino acids, B vitamins, and herbal extracts, chosen for their role in supporting the nervous system and maintaining relaxation. These ingredients contribute to overall wellbeing and are particularly useful when horses are exposed to unfamiliar or stimulating environments, including competitions, clipping, travelling or other potentially stressful situations.
