FounderGuard 1kg

What Farmco Recommends It For:

Founderguard suits horses on high grain diets — gallopers, pacers, eventers, and show hacks. Plus, it’s a smart pick for young horses prepped for sales on grain-heavy, low-exercise routines. Additionally, it works well for horses with a history of laminitis or founder. So reach for it any time a horse is changing diets or stepping up grain intake.

Why It’s a Farmco Favourite:

Firstly, Founderguard is the only product proven and registered to prevent grain-induced founder. Secondly, the lucerne-based granules are palatable, so horses take to them easily. Plus, the daily dose mixes simply into existing feed routines. As a result, you get a clinically backed, hassle-free way to protect at-risk horses.

Clinically Proven Laminitis Prevention

Founderguard reduces the risk of laminitis in horses and ponies fed high grain diets. Furthermore, the formula has been scientifically developed to deliver the active ingredient to the hind gut. As a result, it controls the build-up of lactic acid where it matters most. Therefore, you can feed grain-heavy rations with greater confidence.

How Founderguard Works

Excess carbohydrates trigger rapid bacterial growth in the hindgut. In turn, this fermentation produces lactic acid that can damage the gut lining and lead to laminitis. Fortunately, Founderguard controls this build-up before it does harm. So your horse stays comfortable, healthy, and performing at its best.

Easy to Feed and Manage

Founderguard comes as a palatable lucerne-based pellet. Plus, it can be fed alone or mixed straight into the daily feed. Additionally, the supplied scoop holds roughly 25g for quick, accurate dosing. So adding it to your horse’s routine takes only a moment each day.

Daily Management for At-Risk Horses

Add Founderguard to the daily feed as part of an ongoing management plan. As a result, horses at risk of founder and low-grade laminitis stay better supported. Always check with your vet first to make sure it suits your horse.
