Cool Bites are a calming treat to help your horse to stay calm and focused without affecting their ability to perform. Ideal for horses during excitable or stressful situations such as competitions, separation anxiety, loading, travelling, hacking, farrier, dentist visits and to help excitable horses settle during turnout.
The active ‘calming’ ingredient is L-Tyrosine. Considered a natural mood stabiliser, L-Tyrosine helps the production of serotonin. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that has important functions including helping towards the physiological regulation of stress.
How many do I feed?
All horses & ponies are different! Some are more anxious than others and may need two bites at a time. It really is down to the individual. Over time, our customers have found they need to use them less as the horse gains confidence and settles more quickly.
Competition Safe
Conforming with the FEI Prohibited Substance List, Cool Bites are a handy treat size bite making them a great addition to the lorry for show days. They can be combined with our daily calming powder Calmer PRO for those who need it

Every horse is different and will metabolise at different rates as well as having pre-existing levels of serotonin. Some horses may benefit from 1 Cool Bite the night before an event, 1 again in the morning and 1 approximately 45 mins before. Some horses may benefit from more than one at a time.
