Why You Should Feed Supplements in SmartPaks

Having multiple supplements for your horse can be confusing and time consuming. Having multiple buckets and dosage amounts can make your life as a horse owner a bit harder. Do you want a convenient way to feed your horse supplements without the hassle? Let me introduce you to SmartPaks.


SmartPaks were designed to make feeding supplements easier, and to ensure that your horse receives them every day. This can be highly beneficial, especially if your horse is at a boarding facility. Even if you are away from your horse, you can be worry-free knowing that your horse is receiving all the supplements he needs in one convenient strip.


What are SmartPaks?

If you are new to SmartPaks, there are a few tips that are beneficial. Each strip of SmartPaks is filled with your horse’s supplements. The strip has “wells”, which are like small cubes that your horse’s supplement is in. If your horse’s supplement has a larger serving size, then it may take up more than one well in the SmartPak. For example, I feed my horse Farrier’s Formula DS Plus Joint. The serving size is so large that it takes up 3 wells in her SmartPak strip.


To get the daily dose of what your horse needs, feed one full strip each day. If you have multiple supplements and exceed more than 7 wells, then you will need to feed more than one strip per day. Most SmartPaks only need to be fed once per day, it just depends on the dosage amount of the supplement you are feeding.


SmartPaks are customized to your horse’s needs. Each strip is labeled with your horse’s name and the supplements that are in the strip. This ensures that your horses’ SmartPaks will not get mixed up with other horses. I love how personalized SmartPaks are, even if I do only have one horse! Your horse’s supplements are airtight and sealed in SmartPaks so they will stay fresh. SmartPaks are recommended to be fed within 6 months, after 6 months they will not be as fresh.


When starting your horse on SmartPaks (AutoShip option), you also receive a free storage drawer for storing them! It is a great way to stay organized. The strips that SmartPaks are in can also be recycled.

Shipping and AutoShip

SmartPaks over $40 receive free shipping. Your horse’s SmartPaks can also be on AutoShip, and be delivered to you every 28 days, so you won’t have to worry about running out of your horses’ supplements. Having your horse’s SmartPaks on AutoShip gives you some benefits such as free shipping on all items and 10% off on SmartPak items.


Managing your AutoShip is easy as you can edit the shipping date, snoozing your horse’s SmartPaks, and cancelling your horse’s SmartPaks if needed. SmartPak also offers a Guaranteed to Work Program, so if you feed your horse a supplement made by SmartPak, you can get your money back if you don’t see results.


Why I love feeding SmartPaks

SmartPaks have made feeding my horse easy and convenient. The supplement I feed, Farrier’s Formula DS Plus Joint, originally comes in a bag that cannot be re-sealed. I loved the supplement, but I wanted it to be fresh for my horse and to be the correct dosage of what my horse needs. Thanks to SmartPak, I know her supplement is always fresh and is the correct amount.


Don’t know where to start?

If you have any questions regarding SmartPaks or supplements your horse may need, you can always reach out to SmartPak by live chat or via phone. Their customer service is amazing, and they are happy to help you. You can also take the Supplement Wizard Quiz, and that will recommend supplements that your horse may need. SmartPak also offers free consultations, so you can get help for supplement options or even starting SmartPaks.
