FAQs
What is the main benefit of the Boredom Breaker?
The main benefit is to reduce boredom and stress in horses by providing mental stimulation and encouraging natural behaviors like licking and foraging.
What type of Likits can be used with the Boredom Breaker?
The Boredom Breaker is designed to hold one standard Likit in the central holder and two Little Likits in the ball compartments.
How do I clean the Boredom Breaker?
You can clean the Boredom Breaker by wiping it down with a damp cloth. For tougher residue, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by thorough rinsing and drying.
Is this product suitable for all horses?
The Boredom Breaker is a one-size-fits-all product designed for horses. However, individual horse personalities and behaviors may vary, so monitor your horse's interaction with the toy.
How often should I replace the Likits?
The frequency of Likit replacement depends on how much your horse interacts with the Boredom Breaker. Replace them when they are finished or if they lose their appeal.
Can the Boredom Breaker be used outdoors?
While the product is durable, it is best used in a stable or turnout area where it can be secured properly. Outdoor use may lead to it getting lost or damaged by weather or other animals.
Troubleshooting
Horse not interacting with the toy.
Ensure the Likits are fresh and appealing. Sometimes, a new flavor or a slightly 'sweated' Likit (licked a few times to expose the flavor) can encourage initial interaction. Check that the toy is securely fastened and at an appropriate height.
Likit refills disappear too quickly.
This can indicate the horse is being overly vigorous. Ensure the Likits are properly fitted according to instructions. If the issue persists and the horse is consuming the Likits too rapidly, consider using less palatable flavors or only one Likit at a time.
Toy appears damaged.
Discontinue use immediately if any cracks or significant wear are observed. Contact the manufacturer or retailer for assistance.
