Re: [RC] Ice in hooves - Maureen A. Fager
"I think that you could spray WD40 inside the hooves will keep the ice from
balling up."
I tried that once--it was the worst!! The ice stuck to the bottom of the
hoof, balled up faster and was more difficult to remove. Don't use WD40 for
this, it does not work.
I have friends who use those rubber half pad things put on the hoof when
the horse is shod, sorta like a pad, but made just for keeping snow out the
hoof. They really like them and feel they work well. Can't remember the
name of the pads though.
Cheers,

(Who doesn't worry about ice in the hooves anymore since I came back to
Nevada :-)
