it can yes, but it is just like our teeth, if they have too much it will, but its OK to have sugary treats occasionally.
If you feed a horse alot of sugary treats, yes. One or two is OK once in a while though.
It sure can! The horse will get cavities in its teeth if you feed it too many sugary treats.
Yes they can.
true it can also make your horse unfit and unwell don't feed treats all the time either because every time your horse sees you it will expect treats andstart to misbehave :)
Sugary treats do not usually cause cavities in horses . Horses' teeth continue to grow all their life and need to be looked at once a year. Food trapped between the horse's teeth or growth at odd angles are more likely to cause decay. If you are worried about the amount of sweet treats you give, try some treats designed just for horses. A friend of mine has a pony that is not allowed sugary treats as he is prone to Laminitus so she buys sugar free sweets.
Horses are not plagued by dental cavities, so not sugary treast wikk not cause cavities. Limiting the amout of these treats is cautioned though because the horse may come to expect the treats and become 'spoiled', with an increased tendency to bite when a treat isn't given.
Horses love sugary treats - you might think of Polos at first, but apples contain a lot of natural sugars too! Yes you can give horses sugary treats, but don't overdo it, just like you wouldn't overdo eating too much chocolate! An apple chopped into 1/4s in his/her feed is a good treat, or the occasional Polo (try buying the sugar-free variety). If you give them too many sugary treats then you may not give it cavities but other health problems - make sure it's an occasional thing.Be careful, however, of encouraging bad habits. Feeding by hand can encourage biting in a mouthy horse, and try not to feed over a stable door as this will encourage horses to barge and/or lunge over their doors.
yes ... "/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Screw their teeth. Their teeth are the least of your concern if you are giving them enough feed and treats high in sugars that you would think about a cavity (PS very HIGHLY unlikely for a horse to get a cavity since the horses teeth continually erupt and wear down through out the horses life..... plus its not like they need to brush and floss after every meal) What you should be concerned about is causing your horse to come up foundered if you are giving your horse feed and treats with high levels of sugars.
i would feed it carrots apples or horse treats
NO! dont feed them any sugary human treats! it contains heaps of sugar and could be fatal! hope this helps From Tenny54
To raise your horse's energy on Howrse, you can feed him treats such as a turnip or carrot, stroke him, feed, and let him spend time in the pasture or box.
He wants apple treats, I think you can buy 'em on Dry isle, in horse feed store.
