Some horses may benefit from 1 Calmer 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.
Over time, our customers have found they need to use them less as the horse gains confidenceand settles more quickly.
Calmer Bitescan be fed up to 4 times a day, give one or two an hour before the stressful or excitable situation. They are formulated to help your horse cope better and not over react. A loading dose on first use is recommended for the days leading up to the event, feeding for one or two days beforehand.
