Wink Magic Cushion hoof packing?

-----------------------------------------------

Hi, would like to hear from anyone who has used this product? I have just bought some as a last resort for my boy, he has alot going on in the hoof area, and at the moment, is on 1 month box rest, due to traumatic laminitis, which started as a bruise to the sole. Xrays revealed ringbone, sidebone, early stages of navicular, and he alreadt has sheared heels all round which i have been managing for 10 years. I am not expecting a miracle cure, but want him to have quality of life, at least. He is 17yrs. Any stories regarding this product would be much appreciated.

Ok, I haven't used the package you are talking about, BUT have used for endurance what ever my farrier supplied, for my TB who has very soft feet and knew that there was lots of flint on the race we were doing.

I will also have to use it on a horse here that had a massive injury and has a lump of sole that grows down like a corn. I think that without shoes when being worked and extra protection she will be foot sore.

I have also used it on a young Arab with a nasty splint, he had to be worked and with a cushioning pad underneath and some really good TLC the splint almost has disappeared. so what I am saying is give it a try, or speak to your farrier.
