I’ve been using this on my mare for about a month now and it’s the best hoof supplement Ive had her on. She came to me with pretty bad feet and now they look almost back to normal. Only supplement that’s worked. 100% recommend!!

Been feeding my 8 year old tb this supplement for around 4 months now and it’s been an absolute game changer, he’s always had softer hooves and without fail pulled shoes within the time periods of being shod but since we began this supplement i’ve seen huge improvement in the condition of his hooves.
