I had fun with dog week, so I decided to take the idea and go a step further. In my own research to find ethical animal and earth friendly products I realize how little information there is out there for horse owners who want a clean lifestyle too.
Help Is On The Way
I’ve already started by hunting down a list of natural and organic feed an treats and this week I’ve got lots more in store.
For those of us who love animals there is a constant dilemma over the products we consume, both for ourselves and for our pets (large & small).
Mother Nature Rules
Luckily there are plenty of companies who specialize in bringing you products without harsh chemicals, animal testing or genetically modified ingredients.
Labeling laws have become lax, “organic” isn’t what it used to be and GM products have been sneaking into the system. Supporting forward thinking companies who source locally & responsibly is something every animal (and nature) lover should make a priority.
It is a decision that will benefit your own health as much as that of Mother Earth.
Not Just For Horses
I’ve got lists and lists of eco friendly companies and I’m not limiting my searches to just horse products. I’ll also provide tips for other products that keep animals and the earth in mind. If you haven’t already seen it, check out animal friendly fabric softner.
Did you know that some of the major brands use rendered horse tallow to coat fabrics for that “soft” feeling?
