Saliva is nature’s buffer against stomach acid. Amelia basically eats every 30–60 minutes all day long, which helps her produce saliva throughout the day. The iFEED helps mimic a horse’s natural grazing pattern by dispensing small portions of feed at regular intervals. We are excited to be able to put them to use to help solve a variety of different feeding problems.Īmelia uses the iFEED in her stall and now also has a battery-powered unit in her paddock so that she can have small portions of equine senior dispensed throughout the day. To our surprise and delight, iFEED donated some gently worn units to the SAFE horses. Any questions that we have about the feeder are promptly addressed, and it’s clear that the iFEED company has a horse’s welfare at the forefront of their values. It’s wonderful to do business with a company that has such excellent customer service. Ulla has been there every step of the way with us. We recently put Amelia on the feeder to help with her GI troubles. Ulla has been a resource and friend to SAFE ever since. That’s when we met company rep Ulla Dahl.

Not only were they right in our backyard, but a representative for the company was willing to come out and help us install the donated unit.

We ordered a replacement power supply for a donated iFEED unit, and through a reply email we learned that the US division of the company was based right here in Western Washington. SAFE made a new friend in 2018 when we started Raven on her automatic feeder.
