A love you don't outgrow...

There are some loves you simply don’t outgrow.
They don’t fade with time,
or disappear when life changes,
or get replaced by new seasons.

Loving a horse is one of those loves.

It begins quietly—
sometimes when you’re young enough
that your feet barely reach the stirrups,
sometimes later in life when you didn’t even know
your heart was still capable of opening that wide.

But once a horse finds their way into your soul,
something in you shifts.
Permanently.

It’s not just a hobby.
It’s not just a sport.
It’s not just an “interest.”

It’s a way of being.
A way of breathing.
A way of understanding the world
through softness,
patience,
and connection.

A horse becomes part of your identity
in quiet, unspoken ways—
the way your heart calms at the smell of hay,
the way your soul exhales when you hear hoofbeats,
the way your hands instinctively soften
because gentleness is something a horse
once taught you to practice.

They change the way you carry yourself.
They teach you to listen without interrupting,
to trust without demanding,
to lead without force.

They teach you courage—
not the loud, bold kind,
but the steady kind
that whispers,
“Try again,”
even when fear sits heavy in your chest.

And they teach you love—
not the kind that requires explanations,
or perfection,
or promises…
but the kind that exists simply because
your hearts found each other
and decided to stay.

You don’t outgrow a love like that.
It grows with you.
It shapes you in ways
you don’t notice until years later—
when you realize you face life’s challenges
with a quiet bravery you learned in the saddle,
or when you show compassion
because a horse once showed you
what it means to be patient with someone
who’s still learning.

A horse becomes part of your identity
because they meet you
in the rawest, most honest places—
the places where you don’t pretend,
the places where you simply are.

They see you
in a way humans often don’t.
They feel your heart
in a way words can’t express.
They understand your silence
in a way that makes you feel safe
when everything else feels uncertain.

And once you’ve been loved
by a horse like that,
you are never the same.

Their presence may last a lifetime
or only a piece of it…
but either way,
they leave fingerprints
on who you become.

This is a love you don’t outgrow.
This is a love that builds you—
from the inside out.
This is a love that becomes part of your story,
your strength,
your softness,
your identity.

Because the truth is…
you don’t just love a horse.
They become a part of you—
a part that time, distance, or age
can never take away.

📖 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗦𝗮𝗹𝘁

🐴 I love reading about misconceptions when it comes to feeding horses, but today I’d like to debunk some common myths about good old sodium chloride.

🧂 Myth #1: Salt only needs to be fed when the weather is hot.

🐴 Truth #1: Salt needs to be fed 365 days a year because it is vital for many bodily processes and is excreted in sweat, saliva, mucous and urine. Even in the midst of winter, horses need salt.

🧂 Myth #2: Horses instinctively know to drink water regularly, especially when they are hot and sweaty.

🐴 Truth #2: A horse’s thirst reflex is triggered by sodium, which is a component of salt. Horses’ sodium requirements need to be met in order for them to seek water.

🧂 Myth #3: A horse can meet their sodium and chloride requirements with a salt block alone.

🐴 Truth #3: Unlike cattle, horses do not have an abrasive tongue and are not designed to lick harsh surfaces to extract nutrients. While it is technically possible for a horse to consume their daily salt requirement from a salt block, it is much less work and more physiologically-appropriate for them to consume loose salt that is either provided in a meal or left out free-choice.

🧂 Myth #4: Horses know what nutrients they need and can self-medicate with supplements such as vitamins and minerals.

🐴 Truth #4: Salt is the only nutrient horses have been studied and proven to actively seek out when it is required. They will not seek out other nutrients “because they know they need it.” Look at how much salt and molasses (palatable additives) are added to free-choice supplements.

🧂 Myth #5: Himalayan rock salt is better for horses than plain salt.

🐴 Truth #5: Himalayan rock salt contains naturally occurring components other than sodium and chloride. Some may view this as a positive; however, it is usually a more expensive means of supplementing salt, and often contains traces of iron which almost never needs to be supplemented given horses are generally oversupplied iron by their forage intake alone.

🐎 Your horse’s diet should be providing a minimum of 10g of salt per 100kg of body weight each day; typically more after exercise, intense weather, or illness. Ensuring your horse always has access to clean, cool, and fresh drinking water will ensure they remain well-hydrated and if by chance they intake more salt than necessary, the water they drink allows them to excrete excess very effectively. The best kind of salt to feed is plain sodium chloride such as table salt, unless the diet is deficient in iodine which makes iodised salt more appropriate.

At Proud Feeds we are always looking for improvement.

By using lucerne pellets instead of lucerne chaff we minimized feed dust in our feed. Which makes it better for your horse while eating and cleaner storage in your tackroom.

With this change you can expect a different look for Proud Feeds but with the same nutritional benefits for your horse.

Proud Feeds had an ingrediant change to minimize dust and to ensure stable ingrediant quality.

Instead of using lucerne chaff in our feed, we changed to lucerne pellets.

With this change we urge all of our clients to wet our feed before feeding your horse to ensure that the lucerne pellets soaks up the water and softens to avoid choking.

This change made a visual difference to our feed in comparison to our previous mixture.

Proud Feeds love. We love to see the healthy difference we make in horses. ❤️
