Farrier Finish Daily Hoof Dressing.
Our Farrier Finish Daily Hoof Dressing features 100% natural oils carefully chosen for their remarkable strength and nourishing qualities. This exceptional dressing boasts a blend of at least 5 different oils, ensuring the hoof remains supple and gleaming all year round. Packaged in a 500ml tin, it is a must-have for horse owners. Generously apply to the wall, sole, and frog daily to maintain optimal hoof health and achieve a beautiful shine on clean, dry feet. Enriched with eucalyptus essential oil, this product aids in disinfecting and cleansing the hoof, guarding against harmful pathogens. Farriers can use it post-shoeing to enhance the shine of their work and reduce the risk of infection, especially around old nail holes. Apply liberally for best results.
Farrier Finish Daily Hoof Dressing in Action
On the left side, there are two hoof cuttings displayed. One is treated with our farrier finish, while the other remains untreated. Both are left in direct sunlight for an hour. The image on the right captures them after this duration. Notice how the hoof treated with our farrier finish remains unchanged – it has not dried or shrunken. In contrast, the untreated hoof has visibly dried and shrunken, with the heels nearly touching now.
The Nourished Hoof Luxury Hoof Butter.
The Nourished Hoof butter elevates hoof care with its luxurious blend of 100% natural ingredients, crafted to maintain optimal hoof function and flexibility. Unlike traditional solidified oils, this butter is derived from natural organic shea butter, which serves as a protective barrier to seal in moisture and is rich in vitamins A and E. Additionally, it features a natural water repellent that shields the hoof from water damage, making it ideal for winter use. But that's not all - this exceptional product also incorporates a selection of natural oils known for their strengthening and nourishing properties, setting a new standard in daily hoof care. Its resilience in muddy conditions and harsh environments ensures it stays put on the hoof, offering unmatched protection. While applying may require some effort, once on, it withstands the elements. For optimal results, use every 1-3 days as needed, and conveniently packaged in a 300ml pot with an included application sponge.
Caffeine Enriched Daily Emollient.
Our revolutionary daily emollient is specifically crafted for warm weather conditions. It serves as a powerful moisture barrier for the hoof capsule, effectively combating moisture loss during the balmy spring and summer months. For optimal results, apply the emollient to the hoof on a daily basis (twice if time permits) when the temperature exceeds 12-15 degrees Celsius to significantly reduce evaporation, maintain suppleness, and prevent cracks, fissures, and lost shoes. Infused with 100% pure caffeine powder, known for its natural stimulating properties, the emollient is formulated to enhance blood flow to the coronary band, responsible for hoof growth. Additionally, Eucalyptus and Tea Tree essential oils are included to combat harmful bacterial pathogens. Packaged in a 500ml container with an application sponge, this emollient is a summer essential for proper hoof care.
