there should be enough salt in their food already. if your dog is lacking sodium, theres a very good chance it's lacking other nutrients too. you should probably switch dog food brands to something a little higher quality

∙ 15y agoSalt licks are made available for cattle that may be deficient in salt. Most animals do not eat salt unless they need it. Salt licks would not be poisonous to moles - unless that was the only thing they could get with water.
No because such salt blocks do not exist.
Salt licks are a block made of salt usually used for horses and livestock.
Horses may lick metal due to a mineral deficiency or seeking salt. It could also be a sign of boredom, habit, or pica behavior. It's important to ensure the horse has access to a balanced diet and consult with a veterinarian to rule out any health issues.
Yes! Salt licks are ok for horses of all ages.
There are many supplements available at the moment, so I would speak to the staff at your local saddlery outlet for advice. Salt licks are good though, and as well as being good supplements, they also keep horses entertained! (My mare chews wood, the salt lick stopped that!)
Not sure what love licks are but if they are like salt licks they have a hole in the center. There are metal hangers made to hold salt spools. Check in the Bass Equipment catalogue on line.
Absolutely. They love it even more if you haven't been giving them any mineral salt supplements for a long period of time. But even those cattle that have had salt regularly still love to come back often to load up on it until they're satisfied.

Salt licks don't come in purple, unless you're colour blind or something. Majority of blocks come in black, red, or blue.
None. No such salt block or loose mineral mix exists.
