Hoof dressings

[tigger01]

My blacksmith has recommended a couple - Naf Hoof Moist & Kevin Bacon Hoof Dressing but have never used either. Any experiences any one of these or what else do people use? Have been using Cornucrescene for the last few months but horse still has brittle hooves.

i use both Cornucrescine and Kevin Bacon, i alternate with them, and Ted's hooves look a lot healthier, i know theyre still very brittle but i have only been using them for a month but they look better appearance wise not so cracked and dry

i would highly recommend Kevin Bacon, i have friends who have used it all summer and spring and theyre horses who usually have cracked hooves have not had one crack this year

I've had good results with Kevin Bacon, and it's the only product my fairrer recommends

I use Kevin Bacon and my farrier recommended it to me, seems to have improved George's feet along with feeding lo-cal.

Kevin bacon .... all i use

Camrosa is meant to work really well, but is expensive.

 

[Hippona]

I've used both....Kevin Bacon is better than Hoof Moist...

I'm using Effol hoof salve at present and I like that too, its easier to apply than the kevin bacon and not as whiffy ( also cheaper

)

I've used the NAF hoof moist in the past which was good as its water based- for the last 6 months or so I've been using The Right Step hoof dressing and it seems good, it regulates the moisture going into the hooves and makes them look healthy.

Kevin Bacon....

My farrier says the only product he will recommend for feet is hoof moist. Other than that, I believe a good diet is essential. One of mine can get through extra thick shoes in 16 days

and is a fatty, on a permanent diet - feeding her lo cal definitely helps her have such healthy feet

It's also been a cooler, wetter summer than usual.

Effol is good, as is Hoof Heal

My horse like eating kevin bacon, not sure it did wonders on his feet now, I use naf hoof ointment/rub but am after some hoof heal

Just started on the Naf Hoof Moist with tea tree oil.

 

[Izzy_Gem]

My farrier recommended Kevin Bacon to me as my horse had cracked hooves and it has worked really well!!

doesn't smell too good but it seems to the job.

I alternate each day between kevin bacon and naf hoof ointment, and then hoof heal once a week.
