The Challenge of Brittle Hooves

SkyForge Farriery reported that harsh, dry conditions recently have made hooves hard and brittle, which can hinder a horse's performance.

Glushu glue provides a temporary yet effective solution, allowing horses to continue their tasks while reducing stress on their hooves. By using Glushu, farriers can help these horses maintain their athletic activities without pain.

“With this relentlessly dry weather, this clients feet have become hard , brittle and shelly. Here is an option to give the hoof wall a break from conventional shoeing while still being able to maintain work with maximum athletic capability.”
