Bought this today as hi fi original gets tipped all over the floor now! Horse seems to like it, any difference between it and Happy Hooves? Smells quite garlicky!

I think it looks a lot more appetising than Happy Hoof and certainly my two are a lOT keener on the Dengie Healthy Hooves. Similar energy values tho, 8 ish I think.
Bear in mind there are better things for lami prones if thats what its for: my non lami horse gets it and loves it but my lami prone pony gets an unmollassed chaff now (and fast fibre) eg Top Chop Lite or Hifi Molasses free. She would love to have HH but only gets a handful as a carrot replacement reward as it does still have too much energy and contains molasses AFAIK despite being Lami trust approved.
One good thing is that horses who go on and off liking foods esp chaffs do seem to keep liking Healthy Hooves - my big chap was re christened Andy Pipkin (the wheelchair guy from Little Britain) as every time I thought I had cracked it and ordered a big load of a food or haylage, he would say 'Dont like it - want that one'.........but he has liked Healthy Hooves for 3 or 4 years now!
