[RC] Mike - betadine and sugar??? - Kristi SchaafMike wrote: Speaking of gravel, I have taken to applying a mix of Betadine and sugar to T's soles to toughen them. I bought a little sponge-tip paintbrush to do it with, which works great. Even shod it seems like he is much more paso llano on soft and huachando on hard surfaces, but with the hardening he seems to be happier and more four-four on sharper surfaces. _________________________ Mike - could you pass on the specifics of the betadine/sugar mix? My horse has textbook gorgeous bare feet, but is surprisingly ouchy on gravel; the farrier says his soles have lots of 'give' to them instead of being hard. So, I'd love to find something non-toxic to help harden them up.
