  [RC] Commercial electrolyte treat analysis - Beth LeggieriHave a question about a locally prepared electrolyte treat that is marketed by a performance horse vet and his wife (who owns a dressage barn).  Am wondering about the applicability to the endurance horse as opposed to the other disciplines they might have originally targeted.   Guaranteed Analysis (as copied from the label):   0.55% Phosphorus   1.5%   Salt (min)   2.0%   Salt (max)   3.0%   Potassium (Min)   44.0% Total Sugars (as invert) (Min)   ***   The directions:  For a taste reward for your horse, feed two to four treats alone, or with feed.   I am a tad concerned about the sugar content.  These ingredients are presented in a small moist treat that looks much like a fat, thick mint.   Feedback please on the applicability
 to the endurance horse--for easy feeding on the trail.   Thanks,   Beth, Texas
