How much GT Performer do I give my horse or pony?
Every bag of GT Performer concentrate will have the suggested daily dose rate on the label, you will also find a scoop provided in each bag.
GT Performer is all natural and it is safe to double the dose - this is highly recommended for horses that have been on antibiotic or anti-inflammatory treatments, have suffered injury and been on restricted movement etc and especially beneficial for horses or ponies susceptible to gastric ulcers, colic, laminitis and hindgut acidosis.
⭐ Daily loading dose - for those wishing to start off with a loading dose we suggest 1 - 3 weeks at double the suggested dose, however if required it is safe to leave your horse or pony on this dose rate longer.
⭐ Daily maintenance dose - This is your long term dosage to keep your horses digestive system healthy and functioning at full capacity.
⭐ Stress dose - If your horse is sick or injured, or may be going to have a change of environment, travelling a long distance etc you can double the dose whenever you feel there is a need - you can do this for just a few days or longer depending on the circumstance - as GT Performer is all natural you cannot overdose.
⭐ There is not really one dose that fits all - the dosages on the packets are a good guide but they may need adjusting as some horses may be maintained on a lesser dose, some do well on the recommended dose and others may do better with a higher dose.
The dose rate on each GT Performer supplement is a good guide but you may adjust to suit accordingly.
Example:
The dose rate on GT + Aloe Vera concentrate recommends *ponies under 250 kg - 1/2 scoop
*horses 250 - 500 kg - 1 scoop
*horses over 500 kg - 2 scoops
You may have a horse that weighs approx 375 kg - in this case 3/4 of a scoop is fine, if your horse is just over 500 kg you can choose to use 1 1/2 scoops, we have customers with horses weighing approx 600 kg who are well maintained on 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 of a scoop daily.
Many GT Performer users have found that their horses do very well on less than the suggested dose once their horses have been on the supplement for several months.
