So it is apparent that pony doesnt do well after loosing a shoe! his foot is cracking and breaking off and am just looking for peoples experiences of what they think the best hoof supplements/feeds are to help the foot re grow and be strong etc? As I dont want to spend £30 on something that doesnt actually do anything.
thanks in advance (also posted in the Vet section)
 
I really rate Pro Hoof from Progressive Earth (ebay seller). I've tried Farriers Formula, Naf Pro Feet, Biotin and Formula4feet but I find the Pro Hoof has made the most difference.
 
Micronised linseed.

Also have a look at what you are currently feeding. If you're feeding something that is high in sugar or starch then you would be best to change that rather than feeding an expensive supplement.
 
His food hasn't changed though since we've had him, and although he's a pony that could never go over 6 weeks, in this time his feet have always looked good, its just now that he lost one that we are having a problem.

Okay having contrasting opinions..

'Holly Hocks' did you just feel that 'NAF pro feet' did nothing?

and should edit to add that ideally looking for supplements/feeds rather than anything i have to put on externally.
