Pingu is powered by Dengie’s Grass Range

When Pingu first arrived with David Rumsey and Jevon Gilham, his coat was dull and lacklustre and was in poor condition. They contacted Dengie for nutritional support and received fantastic advice from Rebecca and Dengie’s Performance Horse Nutritionist Claire Akers.

“After visiting and assessing Pingu, Claire recommended simplifying his diet to just Dengie Pure Grass Pellets“ recalls David. “Once Pingu had settled, we gradually introduced Dengie Meadow Grass with Herbs & Oil to provide additional fibre, help improve his condition, support slow-release energy, and increase chew time. The results have been remarkable!”

“Pingu has gained condition and his coat has a beautiful bloom. We have complete confidence knowing he is fed a high-fibre diet.”

“Pingu is also thriving in competition—representing Great Britain at the MCI European Finals in 2025, where he achieved an outstanding 4th place. For 2026, we’ll be focusing on training along with plenty of fun hacks out. Competition-wise, we’re aiming for British Dressage Elementary and Medium, including music classes, and we hope to qualify again for the MCI National classes to represent Great Britain at the European Finals in Belgium this October.”

“Thank you to Dengie and their expert team for the incredible transformation in Pingu.”
