GumBits are all-natural, bite sized chewy sugar pieces that are the perfect blend of treat and training tool. Intended for use with or without a bridle, GumBits naturally promote chewing activity, encourage relaxation, activate salivation, and eliminate teeth grinding.
Dubbed "chewing gum for horses,” GumBits are currently used by a selection of the world's top Olympic and international competitors and are 100% FEI legal. GumBits are composed of an all natural combination of sugar and beeswax. Their taste and texture encourage soft chewing, salivation, and a better connection with the bit. Tense, grinding, or dry mouthed horses in particular benefit from the addition of GumBits to their training program.
Founded in 2005 by Shereen Fuqua of Collecting Gaits Farm, GumBits’ partnered with United States Equestrian Federation from their beginning sponsoring the USEF-Collecting Gaits Farm National Dressage Championships & Olympic Trials held in Gladstone since 2003, then US Pony Finals in 2016.
