| Anyone know of any good hoof supplements for growing stronger, healthier hooves? My sister's mare can be pretty tender footed even with shoes on so we're looking for something that could help her. Thanks! |

     Location: Arkansas | I REALLY REALLY like GrandHoof pellets that have the added MSM in it. It did wonders for my thin soled tender gelding. He used to have a hoof wall that wouldn't hold any nails, but now has a very healthy strong hoof wall. My farrier has seen a Huge difference in his feet. |

    Location: Fort Collins, CO | ADM (Loomix division in CO) makes Integrity--it has 30 mg of biotin per daily dose plus cell-rate to help increase cell turnover. Plus you get all the natural performance benefits of cell-rate all in one supplement.
I use it when my gelding get's a little too tender. LOVE it! |

     Location: Oklahoma | The best thing I did for my horses' feet, especially their sole toughness, was to put gravel and rock around water troughs and in heavily traveled areas. I no longer hav problems with them having "ouchy" feet on rough terrain. |

| I tried several with no results- but I put my horse on animal element detox for other reasons and in 6 weeks my farrier commented on how much his feet had grown and looked so much healthier- that's been 2 years ago and both of my boys get the detox and both of their feet are great- I called and talked with Michelle French at animal element asked her why this would work and nothing else did and she said it was because of the toxins in the body keeps them from getting all the nutrients to where thay are suppose to be-anyhow it has been a huge blessing for me in many areas ( ulcers, nerves, topline, and feet) its a great product |
