- Happy New Year, Happy New Barn!
Happy New Year everyone! You may have noticed that we didn’t have a lot of blog posts directly from the Purina Animal Nutrition Center the second half of 2013, and that is because our palatability barn looked like this: Our team was really...
- Purina® Hydration Hay® Blocks Improved Hydration Levels During High-heat Transport
Since we launched Purina® Hydration Hay® in early 2013, we have had numerous reports of horses benefiting from the combination of quality hay immersed in water for an all-in-one meal. Horses during transport, at horse shows, in the veterinary...
- Our Time At The Equine Science Symposium
Part of the fun of traveling around the country doing horse research and attending scientific conferences is passing by sights like the “World’s Largest Pistachio.” We couldn’t help but stop and take this in on our way to Ruidoso,...
- Drs. Vineyard And Gordon Present Purina Research At A National Scientific Meeting
It is no secret that we stay very busy with research projects throughout the year at the Purina Animal Nutrition Center in Gray Summit, MO. Not surprisingly, every project is in some way related to horse feed, whether it is the formulation, palatability,...
- You Never Stop Learning
One of the things I love most about my job is the opportunity I have to interact with other nutritionists and to learn “what’s new” in animal nutrition. It is an ever-changing field, so you must stay current with the latest research. Today,...

What do these three pictures have in common?
They are all from upcoming Purina presentations at the Equine Science Society Symposium in Mescalero, New Mexico! We have 4 accepted research abstracts on a wide variety of topics, ranging from salt and water intake, how feed additives affect manure stock-piling, and protein supplementation in exercising horses. Each research abstract will be presented as part of the symposium as a data-sharing PowerPoint presentation, describing the research hypotheses, methodologies, results and implications. If you would like a sneak peak of the research and other topics being presented, the abstracts and full papers have already been published and uploaded to the Journal of Equine Veterinary Science website at: http://www.j-evs.com/
More information about the meeting can be found at http://www.equinescience.org/2013/
Also, we will be sure to blog about the meeting itself and provide insight into all the new and exciting equine research being presented. The meeting covers everything from nutrition, exercise physiology, reproduction, teaching & extension and more!
