Great product, I’ve kept a tub of this to hand for about 10 years now. I recommend it to anyone who asks about keeping feet healthy” All the ingredients in Artimud are there to either have an antimicrobial effect or to improve the consistency and hence the longevity of its effect. Related products

Brilliant stuff. Used both the paste and putty for filing in abscess holes. Once drained and clean This meant my horse could have his poultice off and his foot could breathe whilst the hole was still full protected. Turned out horse = happy horse = happy mummy!” Also, both fronts have red concussion marks on the outer wall. From the way the wall tubules are laying, that is likely from a low heel long toe growth pattern, which causes the hoof wall matrix to ‘squish’ at the outer quarters, causing the red marks. The placement of the marks could have been caused when he was shod, but depending on hoof growth-speed, that may have happened just as shoes were taken off, and the hoof had more flexibility. Natural Fibres - to keep the other ingredient in place in cavities and to promote regrowth of healthy tissue. I had mine on a very similar diet to yours, all based on Top Spec products. They are now on various quantities of Fast Fibre, Micronised Linseed and Pro Hoof, with a bit of low-alpha chaff for bulk and have never looked better. It might be worth a look at the contents of Pro Hoof and having a think about that. You just need to be careful what you add to it, might not be necessary.

Field Paste is my “go-to” solution when I’m concerned about my horses hoof health. Good effective product” We have used the field paste on a couple of ponies . Had excellent results ,would most certainly recommend.” Bought the Artimud when my horse had an abscess. Best thing ever, was able to still turn him out in a muddy field . Dressing and bandage perished but Artimud stayed in the hole and kept it clean!!” It's not sheared heels, but it is a significant thrush infection (and a very long foot! that is an exceptional amount of growth for 5 weeks)

My horse is prone to hoof odour and white line degradation. For peace of mind I ensure I have Arti Mud and Hoof-Stuff to keep these problems under control.” Artimud is a fantastic tool for plugging any holes in the white line, toe, and other cavities. I seem to use it on everything!” Artimud is just excellent at helping protect white lines and frogs. It’s definitely resulted in less white line degredation and abscesses in my horses and its so easy to apply. Thank you!!” Never used Cleantrax myself, so can't advise on how effective it is. I've heard good things though. Red Horse is one of only 3 non feed/supplement products that we (Thunderbrook) sell, as we use most of the Red Horse products on our own herd. Field Paste is a firm favourite.”

However without seeing a picture and based in the information it does sound like if there is a deep cleft than heels have to be contracted to some degree and if the frog is weak there is also a chance that the heels are underrun but masked with shoeing. Incredible products. I used Hoof-Stuff and Artimud to help chronic infection in my horse’s frogs and central sulcus. After a year of trying every product on the market they closed it up after a few weeks.” My horse has had thrush for the last few months, never had it before and although its not bad it has been near on impossible to shift!!

Brilliant stuff, our horses feet have never been better. Won’t use anything else ever again. Thanks for making a miracle paste x”

Do a soak with something like CleanTrax. It is an oxine based disinfectant and won't damage healthy tissue. Brilliant stuff, well worth it. Used it last year and worked a treat when everything else failed. X” All of the ingredients we use in Hoof-Stuff are naturally occuring and have been chosen either for their active properties or to improve the consistency of the product. Hoof-Stuff is advised for use in deeper, tighter holes in the hooves where it is deemed fabric would stay. With shallower holes Artimud is advised instead. Amazing stuff!!! I couldn’t be without it, especially during the winter to keep my mares feet healthy. Easy to use and stays put in all the nooks and crannies in her feet. Brilliant.”

Eucalyptus oil – as well as being an effective antimicrobial, this essential oil assists in the toughening of weakened structures. Brilliant product cleared up my horses feet in no time. Also like the Hoof-Stuff which cured the holes he had in his frogs. Would deffo recommend your products!”Storm’ an 8 year old eventer was stopping at even very small fences for no apparent reason after previously having been a reliable jumping horse. Vets, farriers and multiple instructors had failed to identify the problem.
