Be mindful of what you buy and from whom

As a horse owner, you want the best for your horse, which is why it is important to buying equestrian products safely.
You choose carefully what you feed and which equestrian products you use, especially when horses with sensitive skin. But have you ever stopped to think about where a product comes from and how it’s made?

Ultimately, it’s not just about what you buy, but above all about the safety of products for horses.

Many products are offered with the best of intentions. Out of a love for horses, based on experience, or because something seems to work well. That is valuable. At the same time, it is important to realise that there is a difference between Quality and origin of equestrian products.

As a supplier, you are subject to guidelines and have certain responsibilities. Consider, for example, the regulations issued by the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority (NVWA). These ensure that horse products: safe and transparent are on offer.

Not to single anyone out or attack them.
But it is worth bearing in mind that not every product is manufactured under the same conditions.

However well-intentioned they may be, some products are made and sold on a hobbyist basis. It is not always clear what they are made of or how they were produced.

And that is precisely something you, as a horse owner, should be aware of when you is going to buy equestrian products.

Because we are dealing with living beings.
With horses that are entirely dependent on the choices we make.

So do take a moment to think about what you’re using.
Read up, ask questions and make an informed choice when selecting safe equestrian products.

Because, at the end of the day, your horse trusts you completely. ♥️
