Does it really work? I tried it multiple times about 25 years ago and I thought it was a waste of time. Now hosing horses legs down before running them in slop did seem to help some from mud sticking.

LOL Forgot to add..that some people complained that it loosened up nails. Like I said...it didn't work for me so I never used it long enough to see any problems.

Fact Checker Posts: 16572 Location: Displaced Iowegian	If we ended up at a rodeo with sticky wet clay, I did spread Crisco over my horses hooves......It keeps the clay from sticking to the hoof and the hoof slides easily in and out of the clay while running.....This was MANY years ago. I don't think "Pam" would have a thick enough consistency to help.

I don't think "Pam" would have a thick enough consistency to help. Interesting, you are actually putting it around the outside of the hoof correct? We put it on the bottom and yes, around the outside of the hoof....Yes, it was messy but it washed off a LOT easier than the sticky heavy clay that would stick to the hoof without it. There were only one or two arenas that it was "needed" if it was raining. eta: I usually brought my hubby or one of the boys to do it for me.....LOL Edited by NJJ 2017-02-17 7:05 PM
