Kevin Bacon
The well known Kevin Bacon's Hoof Dressingย reflects this philosophy.
Kevin Bacon'sย Hoof Dressingย has been made using the traditional methods for more than 32 years.
It is a 100% natural product made from animal fat and fresh laurel leaves that are macerated to release their active substances that are being used in the hoof dressing.
Theย hoof dressing does notย only give the hoof a pretty shine. Kevin Bacon'sย Hoof Dressingย penetrates and nourishes the hoof deep down.
Using it regularly keeps the hoof wall from drying out, protects it, and activates theย growth of the horn.
Allย this makes Kevin Bacon'sย Hoof Dressingย aย very good product that is used and recommended by a lot ofย riding professionals.
Like all natural greases,ย Kevin Bacon'sย Hoof Dressingย becomes hard in winter because it contains no solvents or crude oil derivatives.*
So there is also a winter formula that is 25% richer in oil to keepย theย Hoof Dressingย soft and creamy even in colder weather.
*Used in some other brands:
- solvents give the grease a constant consistency but dry out the hoof wall.
- crude oil derivatives, such as paraffin and tar, clog the horn's pores, keep the hoof from breathing, and seal anaerobic bacteria in the foot, where they can proliferate and lead to thrush.
ย
Apply the grease with a brush directly onto the outside, sole, and frog of each foot.
For sound hooves:ย ย 2 applications a week.
Before a competition:ย ย 1 application (for beauty).
In dry weather: ย 4-5 applications a week.
Hose down the feet a few minutes, and then dry them off.
Nextย apply Kevin Bacon'sย Hoof Dressing.
Repeat this operation daily for one week.
