Within 6 months (November, 2018) my horse’s hoof had completely grown back and closed up. I had to change her farrier schedule so she would get shod every 5 weeks instead of every 6 weeks because her toe was growing that fast! My farrier was impressed with her rapid and healthy hoof growth. I now use Integri-Hoof all year round!”- KAUFFMAN’S ® Integri-Hoof Customer Formulated to deliver the essential nutrients, in the proper ratios, to help combat quarter cracks and grow strong, healthy hooves.
