Horse owners, just like you, swear by Haygain.

"Rumi used to dunk his hay in the water trough. That was great for hydration, but made a terrible mess. Plus, wet hay can be a petri dish of bacteria growth if left uneaten for even a short period of time. Hay dunking is another thing of the past since Rumi began on steamed hay."
