Not sure exactly what dew poisoning is, but after the hurricane &
subsequent excessive rain, my Lakota had icky sores & scabs on his white
socks (I'm thinking this is the same thing or similar?) that I couldn't
get rid of -- farrier said to treat them with athlete's foot powder.
Three weeks of Betadine & other stuff did no good, but only three days of
Tinactin made a HUGE difference. If it's a fungus, then the Tinactin
should work.

Glenda & Lakota (there's lots of fungus amongus on the Gulf Coast!)
