WELCOME TO ROONEY FEEDS' EQUISTATION

Equistation is Rooney Feeds online – a meeting place for our customers and the agricultural and equine network throughout Eastern Ontario.
Rooney Feeds is your local source of feed, seed and supplies. We have served the agribusiness, hobby farmers, bird lovers and the equine community for almost 50 years.

Dear Friends,

As we prepare to usher in 2010, we would like to take a moment to reflect upon some of the events that have taken place over the last year.

This year, Rooney Feeds had the opportunity to attend many horse shows, workshops, trade fairs, and other community events. In the spring, we held a “Quarters For Cartons” campaign, in which money was raised to purchase egg cartons that would be sent to Rwanda, where one of our clients has spent the last year teaching. Through your generous donations, we were able to send 200 egg cartons, which will greatly assist the women of Rwanda to get their eggs to market without breaking them. 2009 also saw two annual used tack sales. In the spring, we hosted the Horses of Course club, and in the fall, the Oxford Downs Pony Club. In May, we hosted the Grenville County 4-H Horse Club for a day of tack cleaning and bake sales. In addition, 2009 marked the third year of our annual Poker Run. Held in October, we had an outstanding turnout, with 92 horses registered for the event, raising over $2000 for the Leeds-Grenville O.S.P.C.A. Closing out the year, Rooney Feeds was a proud sponsor of the Everything Equine Event, hosted at Kemptville Campus in November. We are proud to announce the purchase of Ian Millar’s Olympic helmet and Jill Henselwood’s Olympic team jacket from the silent auction of this event. We invite you to stop into the Kemptville store to have a look at these items.

As we approach the end of 2009, we would like to thank all of our friends and customers for another wonderful year. We have been fortunate to share in the many successes and accomplishments of our clients this year, and we congratulate each of you on your personal successes. We are constantly being informed of accomplishments and accolades, and we are very proud to be a part of this excitement!

From our family to yours, here’s wishing you a safe, wonderful Christmas. We thank you sincerely for your patronage over the past year, and look forward to working with you in 2010, and for years to come.

Equiline Fibre Nuggets Horse Ration

We are excited to announce the much anticipated addition to the EQUILINE Brand of equine feeds from Shur-Gain – NEW EQUILINE FIBRE NUGGETS Horse Ration.

EQUILINE FIBRE NUGGETS is a complete feed, incorporated with a high roughage level, while maintaining complete and balanced nutrition. This feed can be fed along with hay, or substituted for lower quality hay, on the same weight basis.

FIBRE NUGGETS feature 12.5% Protein, as well as 25% Fibre content from forage products. The sensible shape will allow horses to break the product apart easily to chew, while the size of the NUGGET encourages a slower consumption rate with horses that tend to bolt their feed. FIBRE NUGGETS are corn-free making it the ideal feed shoice for horses that may have a corn allergy, and feature a low Glycemic Index for horses sensitive to high glucose feeds. Of course, FIBRE NUGGETS feature EQUILINE's signature Apple-Cinnamon flavour to stimulate appetite. Nuggets are also Yeast enhanced to help reduce digestive upsets and contains elevated levels of Vitamine E and Organic Selenium which functions as an antioxidant and supports immune response to help minimize the effects of stress.

New FIBRE NUGGETS Horse Ration is available now from your local Ontario Shur-Gain Outlet.
