ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
When To Dose
Fireworks Angel is a professionally formulated horse anxiety supplement that can be added to the water trough before fireworks or a storm is expected, or given directly at the last minute for unforeseen events. This fast-acting remedy takes 20 minutes to kick in with the effects lasting for up to two hours.
How To Dose
Add to the water trough in the morning so your horse receives a top-up dose every time it takes a drink. For last minute or acute needs, dose directly into the mouth, onto feed or a treat. For particularly nervous horses, you can add a dose to your finger then dab onto their tongue, gum or lips – most horses love the sweet taste! The active ingredients will start working as soon as it contacts these mucous membranes.
90ml Pump Bottle
Give 2 pumps into the mouth at least an hour before fireworks or a storm is expected, then a second dose 15-20 minutes later.
90 ml Pump Bottle = 230 doses (2 pumps per dose).
Bottles are food grade aluminium with a hygienic serum pump lid and over cap. Great for dosing on the go.
Jerry Can Dosing
Water Trough – add 25mls – one capful or one pump - to the water trough on the morning when you expect fireworks or a storm. Dose volume is calculated for a 500-litre water trough.
Feed – add 12mls - ½ capful (12ml) or ½ pump - on to feed twice daily.
Direct – syringe 3ml of remedy straight into the mouth.
For very stressed horses, a second dose can be given on feed or directly into the mouth 15-20 minutes later.
1 litre = 80 days continuous cover via water troughs (dosing every second day) or 40 days dosing on feed (twice daily).
Our robust jerry cans are made from food grade plastic.

FAQ
All your questions, answered.
The thermoneutral zone is the temperature range where the body can maintain its core temperature with little to no extra energy expenditure. For humans, this range is quite narrow at 21–28 °C, but for horses it’s much broader at 5–25 °C.
This difference means we should avoid rugging horses based on how cold we feel. Over-rugging can lead to serious health issues, including metabolic problems and thermoregulatory dysfunction.
Tips for Choosing a Winter Rug Weight
-
Clipped horses may need a heavier gram fill to stay comfortable.
-
Remember: horses warm themselves more easily than they cool down under a rug. If unsure, choose a lighter rug.
-
Check your horse regularly to make sure they are neither too hot nor too cold.
-
Consider your horse’s age and natural ability to stay warm.
-
As a general guide, rugging is usually appropriate when temperatures drop below 5–10 °C, but always adjust for your horse’s individual needs.
-
Always ensure rugs are waterproof. A wet rug is worse than no rug at all.
This is an indicative guide only. Always take into account factors such as wind chill, your horse’s age, weight, and condition.
