The Living Rural team will be taking a well earned break on Monday the 26th October for the Labour Weekend holiday. So if you need anything before Tuesday, pop into the shop today before 4pm 🙂. We hope you all have a fun, restful long weekend. What am I going to be doing… putting my feet up with our furry/fluffy babies 🤣!

Update - Meadow chaff all gone now (those who’ve messaged and commented have been allocated chaff). Still have some Future Feed Mixed available.

🌱 🌱 We seem to have ended up with an abundance of chaff (as in about 20+ bags that we simply have no room to store at the shop so they are currently off-site!). So I need to do a fire sale and get some gone so we can resume normal levels!

The following chaff is available at reduced pricing. These are available in-store only. If you'd like some but need it delivered, we can do this but it will need manual processing... the pricing special will not be on the website as I need to carefully control numbers being sold at this price. So please just message us or email us to order these specials for delivery if not able to get into the shop.

🚨 Future Feed Luc/Meadow Mixed Chaff - was $52.95, now $45.95 (10 available).
🚨 Horse Business Meadow Chaff - was $48.95, now $38.95 (10 available). 🌱 🌱

Please help me get my home shed back!

Ahhh spring… sunshine, green grass, longer days… and toxin season! 😬

As our pastures start doing their spring thing, it’s also the time of year when mycotoxins can become a concern for our horses.

If your normally sensible steed suddenly seems a little more spicy than usual, or you’re wanting to support them through the higher-risk months, a toxin binder can be a handy addition to the feed bin.

Here at Living Rural, we’ve got a range of different toxin binders available to suit different horses, feeds and budgets.

Not sure which one to choose? Pop in and have a chat — we can show you the different options we have in store.

Because sometimes the grass really is greener on the other side… it’s just also slightly more complicated. 😂🌱

Whiskee got to be poster boy for the Wellington Lions. He’d just jumped into the pond about 10 minutes prior (an unscheduled swim!), so he’s giving the “wet dog” look 🤣.

Head along to Bark in the Park and take your dog to the rugby! I can imagine the fun and chaos of all those dogs, especially the ones that love to chase balls!

Head on over to Hnry Stadium this Sunday for Bark in the Park, brought to you by CareVets!

Please Note: To help keep our four-legged fans happy and comfortable, dogs can enter Hnry Stadium from 1:00pm. For their wellbeing, dogs will only be able to attend the Lions match.

Check out the doubleheader as the girls take on the Tasman Mako, followed by the boys playing against Waikato.

Before we crush and recycle it, would anyone like this giant cardboard box? It’s super strong and sturdy. Can come with the pallet underneath it if you’d like it which is same size as the box.

Now sold sorry!

🔥 Elite Equine Compete special 🔥

We had a bag of Elite Equine Compete 4.5kg get blown of the shelf when we had high winds. It split the bag open. We've slipped it into a plastic bag. There was no loss of product, still weighs 4.601kg including the new bag. A big saving of $30 is available. Was $239.90, selling for $209.90. First in first served!

Buy one, get one FREE! Promectin wormers. These are a low volume horse wormer in small syringes, perfect for the tricky to drench equines. These are suitable for equines between 150kg and 300kg. You don't need to measure the dose, if they are between 150-300kg, you simply give them the whole tube. Makes drenching super easy.

These are normally $15.95 each, but at the moment they are buy one, get one free so essentially makes them less than $8 each!

If you have a 300kg to 600kg equine, this deal may also appeal to you as you can simply give 2 tubes rather than one.

Special available while stocks last. Expiry date November 2026.
